need some help. Put new bearings,races and seals in both front and rear mag wheels. ****ing cant find the rear wheel hub spacers. These spacer sit in the oil seal and bear on the swingarm. I looked everywhere. Looked like typical spacer thats flanged. Anyone got a part number for me......86 fxr 5 speed chain drive........thanks

looks killer man. i'd LOVE an FXR someday.
for a chain, I went with an EEK KKK 530. x-ring (never needs lubing), minimal stretch, and seemingly impossible to damage
the only "downside" is the rivetted master link (dont think its "repairable" on the side of the road....havent found a clip type link that'll fit it.

BTW...its a myth that X Ring chains never need lubing, you have to keep them lubed with chain oil to prevent metal to metal contact between sprockets and chain. They last like forever if you do that.

Looks like it's coming along and looks great.
I thought they switched to belt drive in '85?
