Front wheel alignment - SV650.org

Big Bad Al · 11-05-10, 07:51 AM

On the sv650s (mines a K4) is the front wheel kept in alignment (centered) on the front axle only by the brake discs riding in the calipers? The speedo sensor stops it one way, but there is no spacer the other side. Is that standard across most bikes?

Just out of interest if anyone knows.

wheel is centered by a spacer on the right of the wheel and the speedo on the left side (view from sitting on the bike) which has a built in spacer

thanks TSM - nothing on my K4 and I can't see anything on other pictures. Have seen several posts on svrider confirming there is no spacer on the right hand side - no explanation though as to the reason though!
