Default RK custom owners I need help.

I have a 2005 road king custom. I need to know how the wheel spacers are mounted on your bike. Can you please go check your bike and let me know what side the big spacer on? Right side is the front brake side. Left is the clutch side. Thanks, Ben

I hope someone chimes in to help, but if not you can't get them wrong or the rotors won't line up with the calipers. If you try putting the narrow spacer on the right side & try to slide the axle in a ways the spacer will be tight to the lower & the wheel when lined up in the calipers, if there's a gap they need to be the other way around. I have a 2010 wheel on mine & I can't remember off the top of my head which way they go, hopefully somebody can check for you & give you an answer.

Fu@k. Mine are chrome but I can swear the rt one is the bigger of the two. I am going to try to switch them around and see what happens? I freaking hate it when crap does not fit like it should. Thanks guy. Ben
