Feckin image shack has wiped the pics off :smt013 so I will have to post them back up (Have lost some as I missed the deadline to retrieve them before they pulled the plug :smt010 )

So here's the LC frame with RGV 250 front and back end and KR1S wheels which I love and don't like any other wheel even though the rear is an 18 inch and 140-60-18 tyre which narrows tyre choice down to one !

Needed several spacers and sleeves to get the rear wheel in the RGV swinger too
RGV spindle is 19mm and the KR1S is 17mm just for starters

Bracket now welded to the RGV swinger

To get the caliper and disc to line up may need a little more work

Billet top yoke to accept renthal fat bars and clamps
Everything just misses !! The preload adjuster is set at the softest so I guess it will be winded down further than what it is now

I stripped the forks and had the gold outers bead lasted which removes the anodising
I will leave bare and just use a bit of metal polish every now and then

If I see this picture a few more times I will probably have a set on a boat over from Europe shortly...

RGV swing arms are almost non-existant here in North America. How many quid is one currently? Thinking I might have to purchase one even though the Royal Mail part will be the killer. See an Auzzie one whipped by chain damage for 189 AU. Again, freight would the be demise of that ebay purchase.

yeah freight from here would be silly for sure, even a surface post price would be silly.

EDITED: actually 10kg sent seamail is just under $100, not as bad as I thought.
