well man, you certainly have an interesting way of working...
why not make a test with a 10mm plywood piece to find the right position and only then cut the expensive aluminum plate? 
Not sure i understand the logic of turning a whole front hub either when you could instead just make simple disc carriers or use the excellent suzuki GS 280mm discs that already come with the right 6 bolt pattern... but hei, you seem to be enjoying yourself no? wish i had that kind of machinery in my one car garage... I am jealous!
By the way, i wouldnt attach the footpeg bracket so high, your plate can become quite flexible IMHO
Keep up the good work

My Dad wanted to find the position quickly, so he used the aluminium plate. All I could do was sit and watch!
By the way...the aluminium (7075) is comparatively cheap. For example...I paid 60€ for the material for the hub. The finished products you can buy are expensive.
I didn´t know which discs would fit the original hub (maybe I should have asked
) and so I decided to turn a hub. And as you wrote I like working with my machinery.
You´re absolutely right regarding the flexibility of the plate. That´s why I´m probably going to weld a nut on the frame to fix the plate. It has to be welded somewhere near the swingarm pivot.
...you don´t have to be jealous...I´m glad to be able to move in the garage because of the little space!
Scottly:
Your hub adapter is a very nice piece of work...well done!
I´m not sure what you mean with "attaching the linkage". In my case the pivot of the levers is also the stud for the pegs.
But you´re absolutely right regarding the load the pegs have to carry. Otherwise the pivot/stud is thick enough to carry the load. I will provide you with some pics later today. Then you will also be able to see how the rear brake will work. I´m going to use a wire instead of the original rod.
