Steve-buddy It doesn't look like I do have any photos, but that's easily corrected.
In the meantime, let me describe how it works with Honjos, or any similar aluminum stayed fender, held with R-clips to your fork tip: Step 1. remove the R-clips entirely. Put them in your parts drawer Step 2. Bolt the PDW kit piece into the fork tip eyelet where the R-clip had been Step 3. line up your aluminum stay next to the PDW kit and mark where you need to cut it off Step 4. Remove the stay entirely Step 5. Cut the stay at your mark Step 6. Re-install the stay, sliding the 5mm Aluminum stay into the PDW kit, kind of trombone-style Step 7. tighten everything up, including the tiny setscrews on the metal part of the PDW kit I'll post flickr pictures late tonight (unless I forget) Bill Lindsay El Cerrito CA On Monday, January 26, 2015 at 3:03:26 PM UTC-8, Steve Palincsar wrote: > > On 01/26/2015 05:59 PM, Bill Lindsay wrote: > > I run SKS plastics on my Atlantis.
