My honda metropolitan stem is a lot narrower than a kx85. The part of the hub that held the bearing seal was hitting my forks, when centered on the bike. So, I had to grind down than part of the hub to make clearance.  |

Now that I got that grinded, every thing spun freely. The rotor bolts missed the shock by a cunt hair.  |

With the wheel laced up, the caliper hit the spokes hard.   |

Solution: break out the grinder. Grinded the caliper to clear the spokes.   |

Grinded the outside of the caliper to pull it outward  |

Now the rotor rubs on the inside of the break pad support  |

so… grinded the inside of the caliper break pad support to make clearance for the rotor.  |
