need advice/info on wheel/brake swap

[shinyribs]

No problem.No spacers at all came with front wheel

[shinyribs]

Hold on.I'm dumb.  No EXTRA spacers came with the new front wheel.My comstar had a spacer between the fork leg and the hub on the non-rotor side.Is that the right hand side???Fit up inside the seal on both wheels.Didn't inspect the wire wheel real close just ushed it up in the seal real quick to help remember where it came from.No spacers at all on the rotor/speedo drive side.Thanks for helping me out here.I am so lost

TA DAAAH!   Brakes!!!   I forgot about this monster in the backyard.My Dad built this beast in '77.VW rear section with a cb750 front end.I robbed the parts i needed to get my front brakes going.Sorry Pops But as usual i still have questions.My rotor off my comstar was 10 13/16" across and the one off pops trike is 11 5/8".Will it work? Found some pics off my dads old junk


This sucka has some long forks!Mine have 15" of tube out of the fork bottoms,these measure 25!Gotta ask pops about them

Dads last honda.Mom got him this for his b-day.1976 cb750 four.Sold it with 357 miles on it.Crappy pic,but you can see trike behind it being started

Dads trike w/out motor.My aunt wanda checking the fit.See those long forks?!Sorry Pops,but i wanna chopper

Here is my comstar rotor lying on top of the "new" one

Am i missing anything.Spacer im pointing at is one out of spoke wheel other out of comstar.Don't see why there would be a difference???Also my speedo drive is very hard to turn,anything i can do about it?

[shinyribs]

Almost forgot one.My great aunt on her Harley.Don't know what is is,but back of photo says 1976

  Where the pads hit the rotor ? What else ya got back in them thar hills,Any heavy Chevys..?...Piute...

[Piute]

76 flh very sought after some call pan-shovels ....Piute...nce wagon

[shinyribs]

Everything is real dirty.Haven't put it back in the forks yet to see where it hits.I'm guessing this rotor is stainless steel?Ever tried to drill one.I like the look of the drilled rotors,wonder if it takes a special bit,though.All them ol' Chevys are heavy!You know my Impala weighs 4500 lbs with me in it?All that weight equals one smooth ride

[Piute]

 No .But when theres a will theres a way,BALANCE #1...?...Piute..

[shinyribs]

Thought about that.Think if you got it off balance it could be corrected with wheel weights?Probably not something i wanna get in to in the first place

That HD has to be pre 69. Upon closer inspection (I thought the engine/crash guard was the exhaust pipe) it is a 69, or later. It has an alternator. That is when they went to the alternator case.
Just use all the spacers that came out of the spoke wheel. Also try PB Blaster on the speedo drive, or maybe, you could are wrestle Piute, for the one I just sent him
Check this wheel out. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp3984Q2em1555Q2el2649QQitemZ300588133672QQsspagenameZSTRKQ3aMESELXQ3aIT

I saw the seal in the speedo drive.Sure i could clean it out,but imagine seal would be destroyed if tried to remove.I'll just soak it.Thanks real person haha     I'm not messing with Piute!!!He used to ride H-D's...gotta be a tuff dude

[Piute]

[Piute]

   Yer right there tools what I meant , wrong year ,So I zoomed in (your aunt has nice legs by the way)think it says Electra Glide on the front fender,they bragged about having a electric starter....Piute....

[shinyribs]

HAHA  I'll let her know you like them!Before my Pops got his Honda and was riding Triumphs,him and two buddy's took a trip to the beach on their bikes.One Triumph,one Sporster and a BSA.Dave,on the Sporty,told Dad he needed to clean his Triumph where the chain had slung oil all over the bike.Said his bike being dirty made them all look bad.It was Pops' only form of transportation at the time.Few miles later the H-D lost spark.He got pulled from Myrtle Beach back to Roanoke VA,on a rope,behind a dirty little 'limey".All the while getting oil slung on him

[Piute]

Thanks for the laughf I needed it.now weres my pillow..piute...
