Trimmed will a slitting disc !
Even with loads of negative camber the only cure was to run at std. ride height - going back to 225 for the next set of tyres..... or Whiteline adjustable lateral arms ???

so can you pretty much swap to any front end from a bug eye then? as in it's literally just unbolt one and bolt the new one on? i never realised they were so alike!
great write up and result
