CurtisRider Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 wrong spacingv mounts are about 20mm narrower i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fruitbat Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 It all depends on the spacing of the Vee mounts. if the Vee mounts are correctly spaced then yes it can. Just fit the booster to theVee mounts and where the top 2 holes on the booster are they can be fitted to the top holes on the 2 bolt magura mounts with some spacers and then the black bits at the back of the magura mounts will be there as normal, provides a little more supportWell it would provide support if any of what i just said made sense,if it doesnt then just ignore it.

Onza Kieron Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 Would'nt it not be easier and cheaper to swap with someone so you have a Vee-Booster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott-mad Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 (edited) if its in line just run it on the bottom two bolt holes. the top two wont be in line with the top bolts on the evo mounts as they are longer than the 4 bolt ones. had an xtr booster that was drilled for 4 bolt and nothing lined up cept the bottom v-slots. so i cut it up and ended up with this:if you fancy cutting it up and modifying it then do this if not swapping it sounds a much simpler idea sorry for rambling hope i helped in some sorta way Edited December 30, 2005 by scott-mad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris@Onza rider Posted December 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 right guys i have done it. i dont wanna swap for a two bolt booster pecause personaly i think they look wank lol. i drilled the bottom two holes out got some longer SS bolts, i left the 2bolt booster on and then just bolted the 4bolt booster over the top. personaly i think it looks the sex and it performs brilliantly and i am in love.thanks alot for the help guys will try and post up some pics soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
