Front conversion rotor spacers
I have a 1977 fxe that is not even close to being stock. One thing I purchased was Custom Cycle Engineering's 35mm mid-glide triple tree kit. The original front wheel/rotor setup had an 11.5" rotor with a clover center. There is no rotor spacer for that rotor, so I ordered an 11.5" rotor with a 2.25" center I.D.. The problem, it appears that my spacer is for dual 10" discs with a 2 3/8" center I.D.. It seems to be the right thickness but the rotor is clearly wrong. My question, is there a rotor spacer that will accomodate my mid-glide frontend using an 11.5" rotor with a 2.25" center I.D.. I will be calling Custom Cycle Engineering.

Update
After speaking with Custom Cycle Engineering, I learned that the raised center of their spacer was called the boss and that they offered 2 versions. One with a 2" boss and one with a 2 3/8" boss. I had the 2 3/8" boss. I talked to Mike at A-1 Babbit in Donora, Pa.. He said that he could mill the boss down to the 2 1/4" center that I needed. I brought my spacer to A-1 and he turned out a great made to order spacer that won't even require re-chroming.
