Stainless Steel 500 wheel & engine spacers
« on: October 22, 2022, 12:09:01 PM »
I have just received a set of S.S. spacers from Max (amx1992) who made them specially for me using my old ones as pattern.

I previously bought some from him for  my 400 so asked Max if he could make me a set - if you PM him he might make some more!

PS I posted this without asking Max & without fear or favour.

Yeah, I'd be interested as well. IIRC there are 2 engine spacers, there's a smaller one on the bottom rear bolt. Should be easy to replicate as it's just a doughnut shape.

I’d be up for a full set too please, for the 550.

Would you want a full set to make a pattern from? I can send through if it helps?
Cheers

Id be happy to make more sets, but wont be until the end of the month when I've cleared some of my work backlog.

I think I have dimensions for the front wheel spacer (44311300000) and the upper engine spacer (50359323010)

I will need the dimensions, if anyone can help, for the 500 rear drum side spacer (42313323010) and 500 rear sprocket side spacer (42311323040). Its mainly just the overall length I need to check.

Yeah, I'd be interested as well. IIRC there are 2 engine spacers, there's a smaller one on the bottom rear bolt. Should be easy to replicate as it's just a doughnut shape.

Is that part no 50357323010, If I can get the dimensions, Ill add them into the sets for no extra charge

Anyone interested can PM me and once I've sorted dimensions out, ill get making them.

What sort of dimensions do you need? width, bore size, length etc.

I should have all of those lying around somewhere.

Cheers Oddjob, I think I just need the length of those 2 spacers if you have it.

Just to check the bore on both is 20mm, the sprocket side one O/D is 38mm stepping down to 34mm, and the brake side one O/D is 35mm with a 28mm reduced part in the centre.

I hope that makes sense

Of course, when you want to find those spacers they decide they don't want to be found. I've found all the others except for the 2 I need to find. The rear wheel spacer (brake side) has been in my face for ages now, keep seeing it when I'm looking for other parts as it's been stripped of the chrome it was done in last time and awaiting some work before having it done again. I won't need to do that with a stainless one but ATM I can't seem to find any. Oddly enough I found a box with everything out of the front and rear wheels except of course those 2 spacers, I found the internal one that goes inside the bearing inside the hub but that's no use.

Anyone else have these parts handy?

500 and 550 use different rear wheel spacers Roo, O/S side is certainly different, N/S could be the same. I suppose he'll need measurements of both. The engine space though should be the same.
