Why and when did the factory switch to 3/8 size bolts instead of 5/16 size as used on Atlas/P11?
Is this a common upgrade to do now? The machine shop offered to convert when sent parts there for machine work, but we declined.
Seems to be holding fine.
Now fast forward to another project and we are trying to match up a good used barrel with the bike's original P11 head.
Turns out we have a good used barrel but it has 3/8 holes. It has the exact same stamping number as the original 5/16
Have many of you have upgraded to 3/8 bolts?
