Hi Bevan, glad to read that you got it sorted quickly and will be back on the road. I measured my original 1950 seal holders and they are 1.825” (46.35mm) where the seal fits. This gives a few thou interference on the diameter 1.832” I measured my club seals at and the diameter Roger confirmed for Draganfly stock. It seems that you have some different holders and you learned something new about your bike. Don’t forget the sealant or string in the threads when you screw the holders back on! Paul
