My YZF swinger....

[youngy]

which nut? rear wheel axle or swingarm pivot?

[steve speed]

i mean rear wheel !! what do you mean?

[youngy]

i mean rear wheel !! what do you mean?

wasn't talking to you!

but...................with the nut on the left, as it should be, I've found it easier to get the spindle through the swingarm and caliper bracket together. with it on the other side I found it fiddlier (?).

Of course, the swingarm pivot can only go one way

I just took it for granted it was the same way as the TRX but then saw all theese pics of it the other way around.....rearwheel spindle that is....

I had no probs with standard sprockets with the YZF wheel (I guess it's an YZF at least). But the Marvic wheels seem to be a touch wider, causing the same problem. I bought chain/sprockets from AFAM, the front sprocket was dished, so putting it in the "wrong" way I gained a little, but I had to add two of the locking washers on the inside of the sprocket. Now it's about right... One thought, which spcaers are You using for the YZF wheel? Dimensions? I can have a look later in the week what dimensions mine have.

Yup, we´ll do that....i have to check what´s up with my rear caliper anyway so i´ll check tonight!!

Rear sprocket is a 41 tooth, no make on it though.

Silly thought but you did take the pads out of the rear carrier before trying to fit didn't you?

Pads....do you mean the cush drive rubbers??

[slow codger]

disc brake pads.

[Killerwhale]

disc brake pads.

Ahh...i didn´t even had the brakepart installed...that was the last thing i did after lining up the chain!

[slow codger]

I have spacers being made for the wider wheel, but when I was lining everything up my rear brake carrier didnt line up, so I have a spacer between the wheel and the carrier, and also between the carrier and the swinging arm.

...i saw tonight that the brake actually don´t line up either....WTF???

[Killerwhale]

So, i never did measure how much the brake disc should go to right but it´s for sure 4-5mm....and as i needed to put in a 6mm spacer for front sprocket it´s starts to smell fishy...

The seller dwells on the German forum but i get the silent treatment as i guess he has no clue and hoping i won´t be going to Germany any time soon....

But...what could have happen here....wrong wheel all together? .....wrong spacers??

Should i just ask someone to make a new 6,5mm spacer for the right side and add the same to the left....maybe easiest and also best so i don´t put extra stress on the output shaft?

Getting them back at the end of the week, so will post dimensions then, as I left them with the person who is making them for me.
