[QUOTE="timetraveller, post: 6842, member: 456"] If the radius of mudguards was as easy to change as just stacking them we would not all be having problems fitting the unfortunate items which are currently available. About 15 years ago when I first found out how badly Vincent spares quality had deteriorated I tried to fit a new rear ally one. Being a determined sort of a chap I ended up creasing it irrevocably where it should have fitted to the front upper fixing. More positively, I use CAD on a regular basis and have access to first class CNC users who already make some of the parts I supply for the VOCSC and the new 8" brakes etc so you will know of the quality of their work. If someone out there can tell me what is needed I am happy to design it for nothing and get the rollers/formers or whatever made at cost. That is likely to be a few hundred pounds or even less if it is only the rollers which are required but I would need details of the machine to which they would be fitted. :) [/QUOTE]
