When trying to fit the 2 spacers on rear wheel I am having to crow bar with excessive force to fit wheel. My bike is an f2 now fitted with f1 swinging arm.can anyone advise if spacers are different in length on the 2 models?? My spacers are 28mm and 44mm in length. It is possible mine is USA import due to wiring which has been much closer to us wiring diagram in Haynes. Cheers Paul

USA and UK, F1 and F2 swing arms are the same (except fort he foot peg mounts on the F1). The spacers should be very similar in length both sides, it sounds like you have an incorrect spacer.I have a spare set of spacers here, I will measure them in a minute.

It may have been running before strip down but was the back wheel where it was supposed to be?. The spacers you have are huge, almost suggest wrong wheel or wrong hub fitted.
Edit...you say you have a different swing arm now, was the one you took off correct, is this one correct?

Comstars are not the same size as standard CB400/4 wheels / hubs / plate etc. The measurements I have given you for the spacers are for a standard 400/4 swing arm and wheel, with standard 400/4 hub, brake plate etc. The wheel may be the same size but nothing else is.
