solid or vented rear discs ?

I don't think they are handed (will check tomorrow)

I've got a solid disc one with a pin sheared off in it (should drill out) you can have it for nowt +P&P
assuming I can get the bit of pin out of it.... (or your welcome to try yourself)

I had similar happen on a mates Westfield.

If you've got a suitable tap drill it out to the size you would to tap it in the first place then run the tap through it.

Just make sure you're central.

won't the old 'migweld a nut on the end of the sheared stud' technique work?
