The FF32/1 bridge plate has been fitted into place and secured with period fasteners.

It has been reversed and put back to the way it was when the bike left The Works. The brake balance beam stop is now situated on the drive side.
Visible here.
The F55 brake balance beam in place.
The view from behind.
The beautifully made steady plate.

After much deliberation I have decided to omit this modification. I really wanted to leave it on but it’s going to be at odds with the overall look we’re trying to achieve. It will be kept with the bike and go with it when it sells.
