While you're checking that, check the bearings for free play. Since the hub bearing isn't sealed, it would be a good time to squeeze some fresh...
Looks like the inner race of the wheel bearing has been bashed in. Possibly by that spacer/inner race in the carrier? Where were you hitting...
It's simple process of elimination. What if a previous owner fubared his swingarm? With the mostly unknown history of a bike this old, who's to...
At the risk of having my wrist slapped for trying to help - how about you two(Pcohen & slowbird) both measure the inside of your swingarms. Inside...
Very sorry to hear that! Hope you have a quick recovery, and get yourself some good safety gear when you get back on!
VTR(Superhawk) forks sliders(bottoms) + F4i brakes. Ask mello dude. :thumbsup:
A better place to find answers would be here: Honda Sabre, Magna, Interceptor BBS - Index I have seen riser adapters that install on your stock...

Here's how the hub should fit: [IMG] With bolts and sprocket installed: [IMG][IMG] ***Notice that on my non-machined STOCK OEM hub, the sprocket...
Only wrote it that way as it's easier to slide the stuff onto the right side if the axle is being inserted from the right... opposite for the left...
That just means the studs were taken out. I did the same thing on mine! I'm using this to install a 900RR rear on my 86 700. I pulled the studs...
We're trying to tell you to do it right the first time...
Looks like a stock 500 carrier hub to me? Doesn't look modified. The caliper bracket looks like yours, yes, the hub, no. Don't you normally get...
Cometic makes gaskets. I told you to contact them. Unless you wanted me to personally send you one for free, how much more helpful can I be?...
