550 front axle placement
« on: May 25, 2018, 10:19:22 AM »
Had her garaged for a year, now I'm going over everything and I cant remember if this is correct or not.  Should the axle be flush w/ the outside of the mount?  Advice please.  I'm rusty and confidence is just low lol.

On my 550 it sticks out a little past flush.  Yours doesn't look right for sure.

Ok thanks.   I like the wheels to stay on the bike!
