lylej asked,

do they just bolt straight on?
Afraid not; infact, far from it. The rear is reasonably straight forward just needing suitable spacers or a bearing swap and spacer combination. The more observeant may have noticed the pointy rear brake conversion too which suits the F3 disk diameter. The front can only be done if you swap to gsxr callipers on adapter plates, because the pad retaining lugs of standard callipers hit the rivets on the Honda disks. The Honda disks also need reducing a few mm in diameter. The speedo drive changes sides and is a modified SV one which is driven by a specially made castleated bearing adapter sleeve. The bearing adapter sleeve on the left is just a plain cylindrical one.

Was it worth it? Many would say not, but it just became a bit of an obsession with me! But, on the other hand, I am very pleased with the result.
