Hi
Ok will look into the need not to have a spacer tube
And have just dry fitted it tonight just the see what I need to modify(and check how it fits)
I love the design and love the use of taper roller bearings (proper job) rather than plain bushes and oring seals to keep the dirt out.
The only real snag is the arm is about 16mm smaller across the legs compared with the Honda item due to the arm being a 25mm wide box section so to keep wheel geometry correct I will need to
remove 8mm from the sprocket side spacer and then check chain alignment / sprocket clearance
The only other small issue I see is the caliper hanger not won’t fit / align with the disc correctly due to increase in the box section size (as originally the hanger was designed to be inboard of the swing arm
so to get round this in will machine a small
“close” 10mm slot in the bottom of the arm so the caliper hanger fits inside the box section rather (and the caliper hanger will
also act as one of the wheel pulls too) This will then create the correct calliper off set and as it is located in the arm box section and will look rather neat
Motto of the story is never change a idea half way thru a project but I think once done it will look rather special and to be honest I love problem solving
Catch up soon
Best wishes Al
