| I got me a set of mags for my 2017 GRiSO and it's just too tight to fit between the forks with the spacer that came with the bike.
I looked at my 07 which has OEM mag wheels and it seems that the spacer on that is at least 5mm narrower.
Can anyone confirm this? Different spacer size between the two rims I mean... | |

What about the axle itself. The manual has two different part numbers for both the spacer and the spindle(axle). Spoked vs Cast front wheel. Just bought a set of cast wheels for my SE for track days. | |

Also, will the rotors off my spoked wheels mate with my new cast wheels? They too are showing different part numbers.... Thanks | |

The axle (“spindle”) for the spoked wheels is longer, hence the different part number.
The discs will fit. The difference was the cast wheels had the wavy discs.

| I just installed the cast wheels on my 2017 and you need the axel and spacer from the early GRiSO plus a 10 mm spacers behind the rotors. | |

| See it's as I feared, not just loading up new skins and throwing em on, but a multitude of additionals....Does anyone have a part number for the spacers I will need? Or is that something that needs to be crafted by a machinist? Thanks for all the input on this sirs. | |

| I was fortunate to have gotten the spacers with the wheels I bought. They were made out of 10 mm aluminum plate. If you have the tools you could make them or take the rotor to a machine shop and have them made. | |
