Title: front hub
Post by: Motorrad on November 09, 2009, 12:04:34 PM

Question if anyone knows.

On the front hubs.

Did they change from 91-04?

I know they went to a larger axle... Did they just change the bearings?

I'll measure mine if you will measure yours.  :wink:
I think I have a '96 wheel in the shop. I'll look tomorrow.
