leeporter Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Can anyone tell me if there is only 1 spacer in the front wheel as I only have 1 is this correct thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breagh Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 One on the disc side,feeling it fits into the metal disc guard which acts as a spacer too. Spindle acts as a spacer on the other side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeporter Posted January 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 Breagh do you still have a scorpa? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamspad5 Posted January 4, 2014 Report Share Posted January 4, 2014 (edited) One on the disc side,feeling it fits into the metal disc guard which acts as a spacer too. Spindle acts as a spacer on the other side. Breagh is pretty much right. There is 1 spacer which slots into the bearing in the disc side, and the disc guard itself is also used.

breagh Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Breagh do you still have a scorpa? Sure do ,everyone a banger. Clapped out 175f with 125 engine,the roughest 250f you can imagine and an 012 280sr that needs a piston. Still think they're great though.

matt2662 Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Hi, I'm new to the forum and as ever after some help!! I have a 2004 Scorpa 250 sy which needed new front wheel bearings, on inspection the previous owner had left the outer races of an earlier set of wheel bearings in and just stuffed a new set on the outside! Having removed all old bearings and races and put a new set in fairly successfully, on winding the axle back in the brake disc is badly out of alignment to the caliper. From looking at parts diagrams I see there is a spacer on the disc side, which I do have but it seems far to thin (about 10mm) so I can only assume its incorrect. I've looked online and nobody seem to sell one so I was going to attempt to make one. if anyone had any info, a picture or any measurements that may help, I would be really grateful. Thanks, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breagh Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 This sounds a real guddle. Screw the spindle in until the disc centralises in the caliper,be precise with this. You need a spacer the distance between the bearing centre and the fork leg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlrmark Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Hi, can you mock it up with a number of washers to get the right width. Then measure the stack height of washers to machine your spacer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamspad5 Posted February 2, 2014 Report Share Posted February 2, 2014 I had a look at mine today whilst cleaning it. The spacer is approximately 18mm between the bearing and disc gaurd. Will upload a pic later when I'm on the comp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
