Title: Converting an 883 Nippon for Potts Mod
Post by: laidback on December 20, 2013, 12:00 AM

Evening all,

Just a quick question regarding my 883 Nippon...I will be running this one on the front of my Master, with Potts mod.  Is there anything i need to do to it in order for it to work? I've read about drilling out the quick release etc, but i thought i'd ask the experts!..

Here it is, not sure if it is a front or rear....

I've never had any experience with the Weinmann adjuster (my first ever one)...what's the benefit of this over a normal threaded adjuster?

i never know why people drill out the quick release to run a potts mod. stick an adjuster where the pinchbolt went and a pinchbolt where the adjuster went and job done.
