What does this thing do?

Does anyone know what this thing does? I thought it would be a centerlock to 6 bolt adapter but it doesn't have the right splines.

Thanks.

Looks like it allows you to use a 6-bolt disc on a Formula disc hub.

Thank you. Looks like I bought the wrong part.... but discovered an interesting hub!

In the history of these forums, I probably wouldn't be the first person to buy a wrong part and then build a bike around it.

Once, at a motorcycle auction, my friend and I saw a bike that had us scratching our heads. Till we came up with the theory that the seller had asked at a second hand parts place for a set of forks for a T500, and been sold a set of forks for a GT500. "It'll fit, no worries" and he made it fit alright. Only thing, he had a 500T. That's Honda, not Suzuki.

EDIT: That's a dual disc versus a Drum brake setup.
