to tell you the truth, i dont remember!
i will check it out tommorow morning and i will get back to you.

Thank you!

I now know when you said that the spacers were the most expensive part of the install. The price quotes have been between $250 - $325 USD!!

One more thing for you...Do the spacer rings have a ridge or lip that centers the rotor (similar to the small ledge sticking off each support on the wheel hub)?

Thank you again!

Sorry for the delay!
I had a look and now i can answer for sure!
I did't use any special bolts. I did use my original bolts. They work just fine almost 2 years without a problem.

And, yes, there is a small lip at the edge of the spacer so the rotor can be cendered.
The small lip explains why i didn't use longer bolts to center the rotors.
The rotors stays centered by the lip of the spacer and the original bolts keeps the rotor tight on the wheel.


As far as i remember i've paid 120 euros for my spacers (almost 200 USD back then) and it was a friendly price!

How many different GSXR triple trees will fit the FZ6 steering shaft like that?

I know it doesn't just fit, but your pictures show that you just had the fz6 steering shaft pressed in to the gsxr lower triple tree. I'm just trying to find what other year models have the same diameter hole as that one.
