What's wrong with the OEM?

If you want to get rid of your money I can give you my bank number.

There was a group buy on here, last year.............so just wondered

 

 

Main issue for me, is that the oem adjuster block (mine has a burr & axle doesn't sit tight to the adjuster, but @ 30 degrees) is soft and the axle can spin, wearing into the adjuster block when tightening the axle

 

Plus the adjusters looks to give finer adjustment increments than oem

 

OEM adjuster blocks (no bolts) are£62 for a pair, in UK from Yamaha, if they need replacing (seen it happen to a few T7's) and these are £86 pair including bolts, so hardly expensive extra, for precision German engineering items and they look trick too

In that case.... Thought it was for the bling.
