  1. Won't be able to helicoil it unfortunately, as you said, there's just not enough thread depth. I think the best way is your idea with a small nut, then just file/grind it down till its fits in tightly under the mount and the mount should stop it from turning, assuming that your mounts are the same as the ones on my leeson.. like two little square tabs welded on the frame?.

  2. f**k what your target is Grahame Keith doesn't know his arse from his elbow

    So true.. We now have no undertrays, all the stock has to be put out, along with any boxed bike with a picture on the box, our shop floor looks like a jumble sale.

  3. what's the benefit of the forward facing disc mount on their forks?

    Surely that'd flex more? as the powers going away from the forks instead of into it?

    I think its so the front brake is pulling the weight onto the front wheel, so the brake has the length of the fork working as leverage with it, same as on a moto trials bike. I'm probably wrong, but thats the only reason i can think of.. i've often looked at my Gas Gas and wondered the same.
