Achieving the Perfect Fit
While this Harddrive wheel is designed for V-twin motorcycles, custom fitment often requires careful consideration. Wheels like this may necessitate modified axle spacing, rotor spacing, or pulley spacing to achieve optimal alignment and clearance. We recommend measuring your current wheel hubs and consulting a professional to ensure precise compatibility before installation, especially for custom projects where attention to detail is paramount.
