Twin disc set up !! You'll be wanting one of these then. Actually i'd love this set up on my S1W but for the wheels, discs, calipers, fork bottoms and radial m/cylinder i bet there wouldn't much change out of 5 grand :shock: http://www.pvm.de/w1/en/showroom/buell/

Jim and DaveH....just from my project file....Twin Disc Front end will comprise of Ducati Monster USD forks, adjustable ( ebay £160 ) , original Buell Yokes milled out( £40 ) Brembo twin discs ( ebay £105) , Brembo twin Calipers ( ebay £130) Ducati front wheel ( £130) , new brake line with stainless fittings twin caliper ( ebay £44) Monster Front mudguard ( ebay £25 ) Powder coating front wheel black, see page 4, £37, titanium disc fasteners x 12 ( ebay £10 ) .

Total - £683 less sale of existing front end ( not incl yokes ) , ebay £165. net cost = £518.

H/Bar Control gear will be a separate budget.

That PVM Tuber is very , very nice. Cactus...so is that one from FrantzGarage. Pash...that is a great detailed article...thanks

Well BuellcatiMan, if your project ends up anything like the Franzgarage machine it'll be one seriously tasty tuber.

This is a bit embarrassing but does anyone know what these two horizontal lugs between the downtubes are for....I cant remember if I dismantled anything off them. It is kind of important as if they are not for M2 use, then ... sparks will fly ...

Also ...just posted on " WANTED" ( Hey Madrat ..thanks for reminder )
