The wheel swap is complete! Had a couple of axle spacers made (why they are a different width, I don't know). But the wheel bolts up, lines up with the rear wheel, and the rotors are aligned with the rear wheel. I'm waiting on the seat before I ride it. One funny thing: the CM400C had a single disk rotor. I am able to retain the twin rotors. The right caliper bolted up to the fork; the left caliper needed a 1/4 spacer to bolt up to the fork. Any ideas or is this just serendipity? I was focused on retaining the original axle bolt length to not skew the forks and experimented with washers to align the wheel but could not make it work with equal washers on both sides. One spacer is about 1/8 in wider than the other (right side).
Ride safe, always!
