Hi, following Martyn Matchless path , I am fitting a BMW K100 triple trees (yokes in uk!) with Yamaha R6 forks to a Commando frame, easy job, just some milling the holes from 41.7mm to 43mm, found the right taper rolling bearing , put some spacers here and there, a Honda CB 750 front hub laced to a 18" alloy rim, a Honda fireblade 900 rr rotor.......done . Now ,I will fit a Grimeca (same as Lockheed) caliper , but need to adjust the spacers between rotor and hub to clear the fork sliders, nearly done ...but the last step is to space the caliper away from the spokes , what are from your thoughts the minimum clearance, is 2/3 mm a safe gap ??
