id like to redo my back wheel in something a little more professional... if anyone is gonna make a batch id like to throw my $ in and get a set too. | |||

If this is to put an XB wheel into an aluminum tuber swingarm, I am interested as well. | |||

Bueller? | |||

As far as i know everyone who has them has custom ones, not sure if any are planned on being produced. I need to fit mine to see how they work. | |||
| Mmcustoms |
I thought hals had them I think they are a sponsor on here | |||
| Phoebe |
Hal's does not have them anymore. I contacted them recently and they said they stopped production. | |||
| Purpony |
Ya, the guy that made them at Hals is no longer there. Problem is, you dont just need the spacers, you also need to mill some material off your stock caliper bracket as well. | |||
| Phelan |
If you make a single spacer that sleeves the axle, spaces the right side of the wheel, and has no spacer past the left bearing, you can get away with not trimming the caliper bracket. That's how I plan to do it anyway. | |||

Called them that's to put an xb wheel on a hd frame with the 3/4 or 1" axle... So back to square 1.... Really all I need is a billet caliper bracket made which I might have to do locally... Is the late model axle the same size as the early model axle? Steel vs alum swingarm? | |||
| Guell |
the diameter is the same, they are slightly different lengths though | |||
| Brother_in_buells |
measure and find out what size you need ,make a drawing and ask someone who has a lathe to make them for you! | |||
| The4ork |
Surely someone has a set they can sell me  I'm no engineer I have not a clue how to measure for a machining job lol | |||
| Brother_in_buells |
Maybe Texastechx1 or Goldtooth have measurements or some spacers left for you. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/476 23/544550.html | |||

Here is a good question: is the caliper bracket the same late and early swingarm? The late looks different to mine | |||
| Gunut75 |
Get me measurements ant what to make them out of, and I can turn up a few sets. | |||
| Phelan |
The caliper brackets are different and do not interchange. | |||

hey guys, sorry to bring this convo back up, but I might want to pair my new OZ forged front wheel with an XB rear wheel. so can you please list what I exactly need? spacers and modify the rear caliper bracket? what exactly do I need to do to the bracket in order to fit it on the new wheel? thanks for the help... | |||
| Guell |
the caliper bracket needs to be machined down since with the spacers its too wide to fit. | |||

I need some spacers to... i have an XB swing arm for my M2 and need to get this thing going asap. | |||
| Goldtooth |
if you have an xb swingarm, why do you need wheel spacers? | |||
| Blks1l |
The caliper bracket from my Brembo 2 piston I had on a steel swingarm just went on my 00 S3 with the aluminium swingarm with no issues, so I don't think that is an issue. | |||
| Deanh8 |
my bad, thought we were talking swingarm spacers | |||
| The4ork |
if someones making a set, i still woulnt mind purchasing one :P | |||
| Gmaan03 |
get me some dimensions I'll make a some for you guys. CHEAP!!!! But I will require a disclaimer form to be sighed before I send you one. | |||
| Goldtooth |
These were my dimensions. 6061 T6 aluminum. nate
| |||
| Phoebe |
I'm still interested in a set of Goldtooth's spacers, so count me in. | |||
| Gmaan03 |
I'll make up a couple of sets and let you know when they are complete. | |||
| Phoebe |
Sounds great! Thanks, Gmaan =) | |||
| The4ork |
im leaving for training on sunday and wont be back (or have access to a computer) until the first week of july. if you make one save me a set and send a $ request via paypal to my email! |
