Motorcycle Repair: speedo drive, brake rotor, fxstc


Question
I have 1987 FXSTC. I have a front wheel off a night train that I want to put on it.The brake rotor has 2 1/4 inch center hole and doesn't have a slot for my speedo drive.Is there any way to make this wheel work with my bike?

Answer
Hi Roddy, Yes it can fit. You will have to re-space the wheel possibly, and you can have your rotor machined to fit the hub and re-notched for the speedo drive.You may also need to have the speedo drive machined down also, to space the wheel properly. Good luck. Take your time and it will come out perfect.
