Harley hub, turned the Harley races down to fit the metric races and use the GSXR axle.

It does look great and I know this is a work in progress, but wanted to note that you should add either a front fender or a fork brace. The stock forks do not work correctly with out one or the other.

Hey, I like that swing arm on that bike! What is the distance from the pivot CL to the axle CL?

For front end stability, get a fork brace from www.fastfromthepast.com
