I'm not seeing them, but maybe you took the picture of ones side before the spacer and opposite bearing were fitted.
I brought home a bike a couple of years ago that seemed a little hard to push. Turned out one of the bearing spacers was missing and the outer bearing race has collapsed and the balls were "square". My guess is that it was a mile or so away from the wheel bearings collapsing completely. So I tend to be a bit anal about wheels and bearings now.
Looking at putting a set of those rear shocks on my xs750, what center to center did you order and actual measurement? Need 310mm give or take a dime to keep angles decent with the front drop. Wheels turned out , love me some gold accents
And two-stroke smoke
Can you tell me about the rims? I'd like to do mine all gold but I see you left an aluminum strip near the tire bead. Is the gold paint or powder? Is the aluminum area coated or bare?
No, I had to remove all bushings and bearings before coating.
Getting them out was a bit of a chore, but with the way this bike is being rebuilt, it seemed silly not to install new ones anyway.
