you will need to PM chopaleg for the 1st gen axel.

can anyone post up a pic of the mod for the R1 front axle for the gen2 all the numbers are getting confusing in my head lmao..... like what they actually did for the wheel spacers and the shim for the actual axle..

Yeah I'm talking shim wise to convert the r1 axle to work.

just take your r1 axle and gen 2 axle to machine shop and have them mic' everything....make bushings to match the gen2 diameter and make them the exact width of the fork ends, the r1 axle is longer so have them shave something like 1/8th to 3/16th off the end of it...use the r1 front axle spacers and your done and only use one front rotor and you might have space the rotor some and use the r1 axle bolt

[shorttrack]

tell your machinest the front rim is offset .182 (hub location).pm me & i can walk you through it if needed.but first contact a machinest who can make the axel sleeves and the spacer bushings.it is pretty easy.

Hey I finally finished my R1 wheel mod on my Gen1 busa. Took a while but it was definitely worth the wait!!! Just wanted to say I appreciate all the help with the mod and I wanna give a special thanks to Chopleg and shorttrack for going above and beyond with all thier help and technical support.

you are welcome sir.looks good.is that a TL 1000 rear brake hanger or stock 1st gen busa?i have a shorter (radially) TL brake stay if you need for better rear pad to disc contact.

I tried a GSXR bracket, it would have put the caliper in the right spot except the caliper itself was hitting the hub of the R1 wheel, went with 09 R1 caliper and bracket, so easy, don't see why others don't use that

[Moody]

yep r1 rear caliper and bracket are the way to go for sure for easiest and effecient install

[rizlabusa]

Hey shorttrack that is a stock busa hanger. I could definitely use that TL brake stay if you think it will allow more contact. Let me know how much, I would appreciate it. I tried going with the R1 rear caliper and the Adams top mount brake stay but I dont have an extended swingarm so there was no where to mount it on a stock swingarm and it wouldnt line up with the mounting bolts on the caliper. It aslo caused problems with lining up the rear wheel to the front. So I figured I would go with this setup until I get an extended swingarm and then mount my R1 caliper and top mount assembly.

thought i would just post a pic. don't know how well you can see the rims but they are bad azz looking.
