Rear Axle Spacer

(1/2) > >>

lordwhimsey:
Can anyone tell me how long this rear axle spacer should be on a CB550F?



I've only got one from a K and I think it's a bit too long! I can't one for an F anywhere so I'm going to shorten the one I've got.

Bryanj:
I cant tell you the length but i seem to remember the difference is between the swing arm with removable ends and the closed end type

lordwhimsey:
Thank Bryan. Before I got my calipers out I heard from someone over on the US forum. It's 37.75mm which is the same width as the brake side spacer on the K. I've got one of these so I've used it rather than shortening the left side one.

That TT100 rear tyre looks undersize...looks like a 4.10x18 when ideally you want to have a 4.25/85x18.

Well spotted; I'll get a 4.25/85x18 when this one wears out... if it wears out before I die of old age!
