    Axle was already bent when I bought it and I had it straightened.

    In these pictures i still have the metal spacer that goes behind the hub on. I can take the out and it should narrow it about 1.5" or so. Like I said I haven't gotten to ride it yet to see how I like it. If I dont care for it I can always buy an extra set of stock hubs to switch back and forth.

    UPDATE; I don't know why I didn't think of it until now but I stole acouple lug nuts off my R so I could take the X for a test ride. I only rode it for a few minutes but i think I love it! I took it down the rode alittle bit to see how it did then took it out in my yard to cut a few turns, even spun a few donuts in the gravel for old times sake. Just wish the yard wasn't dead and the grass had dew on it so I could really go nuts.

    It seems to be ALOT more stable and really inspires confidence in the cornering. Almost alittle too much. It didn't try to 2wheel in the corners but did seem to plant the rear for more traction. I was pulling the front tire up more then I remember in stock form.

    Also had to take the R out for a spin!! What a demon!!!!

    yeah the wider they are harder it is to flip. sumtime i find it little too hard to turn unless spinning the rears, thats why i say i found happy medium around 46"ish. mines 49" right not

But hell yea its all part of the fun. The only part that isnt fun is then re-detailing your bike afterwards but hey you wanna play ya gotta pay!
    I couldn't agree more. In a wierd way it almost makes me not want to ride my R, just look at it sittin pretty in the garage.... NOTE: I said ALMOST..
