martyngsxr Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 do the 4.5" and the 5.5" use the same sprocket carrier cheers martyn Quote
Rene EFE Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 To add; 4.5 has a 5-bolt patern, the 5.5 has 6. Quote
wraith Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 I have had both and used the carrier off a 5.5" & 4.5" both had 5 nuts it's the depft of them. Quote
Rene EFE Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 Odd; I've got bikes with both wheels in the shed and mine really are different. Quote
Oilyspanner Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 5.5 inch hub on 1100 M/N and later straight spoke wheels have 6 bolts design. So's the hub on the 1100K - so all Slingshot hubs are the same, I think the Slabbies have the 5 bolt design. Quote
Rene EFE Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 Ah, mines are 750K, that's probably the difference Quote
kokolis Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 There are two sorts of carriers one with a diameter 160mm the other 180mm. The small one was used for the 750 and slabby (3 spoke 1100) the other for the 1100, and later 5,5 rims Quote
Nelson Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Don't know if this helps, but my 87 Slabby wheel has 5 bolts & the 5.5 I have on the back has 6. It's suppose to be from an 750 L, can't confirm for sure, but the geezer who sold it to me advertised it as 750 L. That's my tuppence hapnies worth. Quote
Captain Chaos Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 (edited) both my 750 ones (L and M) have 6 bolts. The 750J I had (with 4,5" wheel) was with 5 bolts. Edited February 6, 2016 by captain chaos added some shit Quote
