Okay, so, I'm drafting a print to machine an adapter for a motorcycle front rotor. The wheel has a six bolt pattern (shown in the older smaller rotor) and the new rotor has five bolts. Can this work? Ive machined my fair share of bolt patterns but I have never run across this situation.
Perhaps I am over thinking this, the old and new patterns are obviously balanced within themselves. So when I bolt them together, it shouldn't matter right? Or, will they become unbalanced because when you combine them there is less mass in some areas. My brain hurts. Help me!
Dan doesn't matter, build the spacer/adapter however you want balance doesn't matter only true & cantered.Just have wheel rebalanced after disc is bolted on..........
ReplyDeleteYes, I need to combine my motorcycle brain and my machinist brain. Derrr... Thanks Funnel.
