    Evening all,

    Does any one know if an 04-07 rear wheel will drop into an 08 swing arm without any problems?

    Cheers :)

    I'm sure the rear drops in with no problems. Fronts need a spacer for the disc's I think.

    rear drops straight in, iirc its 5mm off the hub disc mountings to get the discs line up right on the front.

    Had a RR4 machined to fit in my RRB, think it needed 4mm taking off to bring the discs in.
