[QUOTE="craig, post: 131177, member: 1959"] Is there a Vincent specialist to send this first posted RFM, and have it repaired by someone who has the proper tools and is experienced with this? USA? Canada? UK? France? Germany? So pulled a spare RFM out and set it up on the lift to compare crude dimensions with the RFM previously posted. I leveled the rear wheel with a bubble level, vertically across open rear brake drum, both sides. Measuring 12" out from center, both sides, I get about a 3mm drop to left side. The first RFM measures about 12mm drop to left side. [ATTACH type="full" alt="RFMSpare3mm.jpg"]38882[/ATTACH] This poor photography, probably sloppy set up, poor camera use, but you get idea. This picture shows the "spare" RFM, not my original posted problem. Both series C RFM. I would have to pick a backdrop sheet with vertical lines, duh. Thanks Craig [/QUOTE]
