Re: Tyre offset with scootrs disc brake fitted

The simplest way to check if any hub will fit in your links is measure from the centre line of your rims to each side of the hub where it will fit between the links ,if the measurement is different on one side to the other then the hub will not be central. The difference in distance between the ins...

Re: Tyre offset with scootrs disc brake fitted

Re: Splash Guard...........Yes or No

most air cooled lambrettas suffer from cooling problems so i dont believe in wrapping the exhaust to keep as hot as possible , most exhaust wrap on cars is used to keep heat out of the engine bay.

Re: Wide Rims

I thought that 100/90 tyres were slightly taller (only about 1mm) than 3.50 tyres. 100/90 is 100mm wide, the 90 profile is a percentage of the width (90%) making the tyre 90mm tall. A 3.50 tyre is 88.9mm tall. i use 100/90 and 100/80 on wide rims on the back of my GP. Use the 100/80 when want to dr...
