There are spacers for the xb wheel in tuber swingarms ,but it's all home/custom made.

Here is the quick answer for you.

Rear spacers are on ebay
or if you need the cad drawing for them. you can have some made up on a lathe. I have that file somewhere...

There is more then 1 way to do the front end.
03-04 xb forks are the same as the x1.
except you loose about an inch on the front. if you want xb triples then you need to press out that steering stem and press in the x1 stem. with that you may have tighter slow turning radius.

use the search function on this site. it is well documented if you take to time to search past threads in the oldschool buell section.

Im in the middle of doing this wheel swap on my X1. I will post it up once i get my frame mounted to my engine.
