could you please pick this lovely bike up from the floor! :shock:
(and you should get swingarm done in black)

very very neat bike

DOH!
school boy error on the build









(discs are on the wrong way round!)

yes your right
some go that way round though
i think my ashima ones go the wrong way
but then they chaged to the right way
and now im not sure!

front is on right, rear is on wrong

it's all to do with forces exerted etc.

i think the other way round?

nope the fingers of the rotor should point in the direction the wheel turns, thus passing the force from the disc to the hub, if you have it the other way around there is potential for the disc to snap or crumple under the forces.

think about it

yessir you are right

turns out they're both on the right way.
she had a first ride on it on saturday and it's got the thumbs up.

i just need to fiddle with the e-type mech a bit more, the frames not really designed for it, so i'm gonna have to bodge....
