All welded up now and tried the RGV hanger with the KR1S disc and it all seems to fit but haven't double checked it yet

Nice work Martin

I'm not an engineer but are you sure the mount will take the forces
involved

Normally they are transmitted along the sides of a triangle not across
them - just looks like it could do with bracing behind the top of the
mount to connect to the existing top brace on the swing arm?

I used this design,it has been on Ian Booms LC Hybrid for several years now and as it's the P non banana swinger on his ,it is only welded across the top and not down the front like mine

Thought i would need spacers behind the discs to get them to line up with the calipers but used 2mm thick washers between the caliper and fork mounting holes
looks tight but so are the standard KR1S calipers in the wheel

Progress has been slow but been buying bits and pieces behind the scenes

After seeing what Kennys (TSA) pipes did on the dyno,i'm currently trying to save up to get some

Apart from the postage and customs it would have been a good deal but yes

Just hope it all works now
They do sell cheaper ones on Ebay called Pro -cool etc but these are meant to fit banshees
This one is made especially for the powervalve and means it just bolts straight on and the standard thermostat housing ,temp sender fits etc and more importantly it keeps the standard barrel studs ,where you have to fit longer ones with the Banshee stuff
