05 gsxr1000 wheels on my 07 busa
« on: February 21, 2009, 02:39:47 PM »
i have a set of 05 1000 wheel and i want to put them on my busa.

i know you need spacers for the front wheel and someone told me you had to mill down the rear caliper bracket but how much ?

 do you use the stock 1000 spacers off the rear wheel or the ones of the busa wheel ?

does anybody know where i can get the front wheel spacers ?

I'm in the middle of doing this 05 wheel swap.  My plan for the front wheel is to use the busa axle and make two .08" spacers (one for each side of the wheel) by cutting the gsxr 1000 axle spacer off the old axle. Then shiming the front calipers .05" using washers.  For the back i'm going to mill down the brake hanger .125" on the side that faces the swing arm, while using the gsxr 1000 rear spacers.     

I have no idea if the is the correct way of doing this, but i'm going to give it a shot....

when you guys swap wheels, make sure you get spacers for front calipers.
