Am i missing a spacer? - Page 2 - SV650.org

27-04-06, 06:17 AM

dude, i have just ordered a spacer for my bike as i took it to a guy to give it a service and he said the spacer between the back wheel ad sprocket was missing, therefore making my brakes not work properly and could bust my bearings up.
and advised not riding it.
he ordered 1 for me from suzuki main dealer, but its going to take a week so i ordered 1 from a link sum1 put up for me in the wanted section. and once ordered i got get it the next day before 9am. i paid extra for the fast delivery but in my eyes it was workth it.
the spacer cost £11.20
total with fast postage £18.16
but like i said i have another one on order, it will take a week to come so if you can hang around (not like me

) i can post that one to you.

Sourced one finally! Fowlers of Bristol had 4 in stock so they are sending one first class! Should arrive tomorrow

Vsumouse: gave spares direct a phone but unfortunately couldn't help, although they gave us numbers to try! Seems to be a good source for spares though!

Thanks for all the help everyone!

Glad you sourced one.. The probable reason it went missing is, when you take the back wheel off, the spacer sometimes stays on because of the grease holding it there! Probably fell off at a later stage. I know you've got one on order, but check the route you took the wheel along.. Might have dropped of in the flower bed or something!!

(Not in the boot of car is it??)

KciN:

Yeah i think it stayed in the wheel then maybe fell off on way onto the garage. Couldn't find it in the flower bed and nope not in the car

Received the missing part this morning (really quick) and got fitted on so Pilot Powers are up and running.
Not sure about the Powers yet

Been out for about 55miles so far but taking it easy, so i'm not really jumping and shouting about how good they are. Certainly they drop into the corner quicker and do feel more grippy than the Dunlop D220's i had before. Shall give it some time and then hopefully will be all happy with them!

Thanks again for everyone's help!
