I have just done it , On my Special tank, Now back on a standard bike,
Not enough clearance !!, With the Girdraulic forks,
Just drilled a standard rubber and filled the old hole with a bit of rod .
Cheers Bill.

It's possible to machine rubber with a grinder on a lathe.
And even the better with cheap diamond burs with dremel.

Not that I would put a dremel on my lathe, phuuu.

BTW @craig maybe make longer bolts to fix on the steering stem.
Thread all the way.

And for rear. Some nuts under the the oil tank tab. To counter fix.
You have to machine them a bit.

Cheers
