I'm on the same page with you. The PM caliper is different than a stock caliper in that it has a shoulder bolt or spacer pressed into it that is the smae diameter of the axle. I could theoretically mill off the entire end of that which is 1/8-1/4 of an inch or so. However, if I do that do I need to respace my brake rotor? If not, I'll jsut go to an indy and ahve that done. It's gotta be cheaper than a new tire and having it mounted. Also, I am pretty certain the primary pulley is wide enough to compensate for movn the wheel 1/4" as I got a pic of one and it looks to be 2" wide. So...I guess I don't really need to worry about that. What do you think? My head is spinning. It is easier to figure this out with it right in front of me in pieces.

didnt know you had pm caliper.........but should be the same ...........the right side of the caliper the part that hits the swingarm (acts like a spacer), can you mill 1/4 inch off of it, too bring the wheel right? the caliper and rotor will come with it, and wutever you took off the cakiper would be added to the other side..........lol ...hard to explain,,,lol
