Few pictures of another project.
I finally found a crusty Z1- 6 bolt disk rotor too modify.
I did not want to ruin a 73' disc with an 8 K,
Front Z1 hub Dragbike rim 18" Akront, SS Buchanan's.
Cut 1/2" off diameter, check out this pile of 1/2" worth of rotor! stainless mix alloy? gold/yellow? of rotor material? Then going to Blanchard grind it down to 4.5mm then fancy drill it and fabricate a bracket for a triangle Grimeca caliper. Should be a cool Vintage Drag Bike Front End!
I would have taken more off? But clearance issues at back side up to the spokes is real close! I already have to mill .025" ? or more off back hopefully?
Got Surprised  for finding 40mm x 20mm x12 Non-Standard roller bearings! 2 for $20! Free Shipping! - AmazoChiComm! Came from China in 6 days! Wow?
Quality Industrial house parts sellers where up in $40's to $50's a piece for them.
For the purpose of custom fab using them in a Z1 hub.  20mm rear axle that works with this Vintage 'Betor' old frontend popular back in 80's for drag bikes.
I already have plenty of 20mm collars, steel and aluminum for making spacers.
Should be cool

I mentioned in the original thread that I had one!
I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

Yes, I did see that, along with Matt's reply.
USPS Priority medium flat rate with the US/Can discount was still $49.99 to mail. Plus I would of had to pay you, that price was a little high at the time! Sorry I never replied after.
But I had a connection in Ohio that sent me one for free. Paid him to mail plus tip, $25 to my mail box.
