I got the calipers mounts fitted. Should I do pocketing or holes? holes will be faster, but pocketing will be stronger. both will look cool.

I like it as is but knowing your work, a pocket on each side will SET THEM OFF. :woohoo:

I did a combo of holes and pocket just for the sake of being different than what i did on my kz1000 project.
