GSXR rear on an 86' - Measurement check

[FJmonkey]

If anyone was concerned that their GSXR rear might not the centered in the swing arm based on my previous posts need not to worry. The 90'-92' GSXR wheel hub needs to shift Left and spacers added on the Right for chain alignment and wheel alignment. Now I know what parts I need to finish this. Thanks for all the good input.

FJMonkey,

So what you are telling me is that my 90 GSXR wheel is off center?  I have a spacer on each side of the swingarm.  Not to doubt your measurements at all, however, my bike has a very neutral feeling with no head shake whatsoever.  Even with no hands at any speed.

Again, what is the min tolerance for this mod?  Do you think that my setup is sound?  I would sure hate to have put out that manual and what I outlined be unsafe.

Concerned,

Just to be perfectly clear, I am making an assumption that the seller told the truth and sold me a 92' rear wheel. Since I did not remove it my self from the original bike I am tossing some trust to the wind on this. After a quick fit up yesterday I used 0.32 inches of spacers on the rotor side and the wheel looks centered in the swing arm. If your wheel/tire looks centered in the FJ swing arm then you are not off center (if so then not by much). I measured from outside of the hub to outside of the mounted tire on each side of both wheels. The GSXR tire was about 0.350 inches larger gap on one side that the other. Maybe I am missing a spacer, I checked the parts diagrams and they don't any extra bits that I don't have. Maybe the spacer I have is wrong for the wheel and year. Hard to say, that is why I am taking measurements and not trusting to blind faith in following other Mod writes ups. I measured twice, time to cut and fit up. WCR!!!!!

Not sure about tolerance for this Mod, if we had a factory engineer to fill that in it would be great. Missing that, we all just have to wing it.
