A stormy day in Achnasheen today, so I decided it was time to centre the rear wheel and set the final drive chain run. A spacer turned from alloy roundstock and drilled to suit the 18mm Honda spindle set the wheel dead centre in the frame.
With a 3' length of 1/4" flat bar G clamped to the rear sprocket and a short length of the same bar clamped to the gearbox sprocket, i firstcheckd that the two were running parallel then measured the offset.... 3/8"
I turned down a piece of steel tube to the same inner and outer diameter as the standard sprocket distance piece but 1/4" narrower then turned the sprocket round and fitted it with the 1/8" dish in the way..... Jobsagoodun!!!!
