[QUOTE="DucATIRadeon, post: 172762, member: 5456"] or... the hole become oval due to the stresses involved with little support and tiny surfaces. as I suggested. anything to make them proper fitment! well I am a youngster compared to the lot of you I suppose, my rapide is almost double my age... I don't want to ride like I stole it, they have to work properly as advertised and I should have absolutely no worries my better half gets scared shitless (again). I was told from a Black Shadow, its aluminium and has cast air scoops on them with fine wire mesh glued to the back. hubs are 10 holes but 5bolts used, ribbed with drainage holes. ow yes have turned the shoes too before fitment, all little bits help. notice the brake lining has a higher edge on the outside, almost like the shoes aren't far enough inside.
