I want to know how do you hold the backplate of a t500 front drum to a cb350 fork leg?
Do you need to weld a tab on the leg?
or can i weld a threaded boos on the backplate for a torque arm?
Any help or pictures is welcome.

I dabble in rocket science, when I\'m not picking my nose
The other night I gave my girlfriend an orgasm, but, she spat it back at me
'you can take my word for it or argue until you find out I'm right'

This is how I did a T500 to a CB550 fork ... I'm using a caliper mounting point here, but you could probably use one of the fender mount bolt holes. I drilled and tapped two 6mm holes on either side of the backing plate "Lug" slot and made a stay rod that connected to the bolt hole on the fork. Worked great.

Thanks guys,
i will try to make a bracket and if i'm not happy with the result i will bring the backplate at work to weld a threaded boss.
I dont really want to tilt the backplate foward, i want to retain a good angle for the speedo drive.This bike will be a road bike for this summer and if everything work has planned i want to participate at least the quebec and maybe shannonville vrra round.
