Front axle diameter
Do the front axle require 1" bearings? I will be ordering a matching wheel for my sidecar and was told that it will require 1" bearings. I need to know if this is the same size as the front to assist with the order. I've confirmed that a 18" wheel will fit with a 130/70/18 tire.

The rims I got from an 07 SG have 1" axles. I would think '06 are probablythe same.

They are 1".When Iresearched the parts books for a wheel swap a couple of months ago I compared the part numbers for '04-'06 and the bearings are the same PN--9247--and use 1" axles.

RE: Front axle diameter
Thanks guys. This will make it easy. Looks like I will just order a front wheel and then check the spacers for the sidecar.

RE: Front axle diameter
Should have mentioned that the axles, spacers, and bearings are the same for front wheels on the models mentioned in my original reply to your question.
