O.K. here's a nightmare, swapping this XJ900 wheel to the XS11 front end. They're a bit different huh?
of course nothing ever runs smooth, I want to keep the XS axle(17mm diameter) XJ900 is 15mm, and of course the reguired bearing size 42 x 17 is a 'rare one' - just what you wanna hear, yeah right, but there's a 40 x 17, a 1mm thick strip of plastic will fix that, but of course the inner spacer tubes are different lengths so extra spacers needed, then of course this is all just piffle compared to the major disc/fork/caliper drama that's sure to follow...
