Could someone please shed some light on these for me...I'm making some of my own up at the moment and I am trying to convince myself of a suitable thickness and material to use.
Does anyone have any, or seen any ...and if so, could you give me an idea of
a) the material they are made of
b) the general thickness of the plates
c) any piccies would be fantastic!
Cheers
Drop Iconicc(Frank)a U2U.I sold him my adaptor plates and calipers.I'll e-mail some pics.

Steve Harris of Harris Performance told me never to go below 8mm for brake plate adapters and ideally try and work with 10mm Dural plate.
I must have made a good couple of dozen in my time

Harv,
I just happen to have a couple of Dural plates going spare.
they are 10mm thick, 100x130mm
If they are any good to you, drop me a u2u with your address and I wil post them off to you FOC.
