Front Wheel Spacer (Disk side)

swooshdave · Apr 14, 2010

So, there's suppose to be a spacer here. I look on the Old Britts site and they mention that a Rear Isolastic Collar can be used as an alternative. Has anyone ever heard of this before? I don't think I have the spacer but I can get my hands on a rear iso collar.

Anyone have the wheel spacer laying around and can give me some measurements?

Good thing I haven't sealed the box yet...

You never sent me a list of stuff you still need...

This is what I have for my 75 850 spacer, disk side. It is not what the book shows (book shows the same as yours) but it is orginall to the bike. Don't know if yours would be the same or not. If you need measurements you need to let me know what you would like measured in the next day or so because I would like to put the wheel back on.

OK I give up.... is that sawdust all over your front wheel or just a bad picture.

So busted. That is sawdust. Wheels were in my dad's garage when they were doing a few woodworking projects. I'll clean them up at some point but the reality is that I want to cut the spokes and sent the hum ot Buchanans at some point and have some alloy rims laced on. Until then they will really just be to hold the bike up.

I'd love to get measurements on the piece in the top picture.

That's the correct spacer. I've got 2 spares.

Well, I HAD 2 spares; now I have ONE spare and the other one's in SwooshDave's box 'o goodies.

swooshdave,

All three parts in the pictures are the same just differrent shots. It's a chrome spacer with a dust cover, all one piece. I have found the parts books wrong so many times.
