Little bump. Was browsing the WERA forums, and stumbled upon this gem of a thread...

Here's my front wheel set up. Post 1995 EX500 wheels. I used the JeffroJ rear caliper set up, worked perfectly with all spacers. Bolt it on and go. Front was a bit tougher. I am too cheap to buy something that may or may not work, so I cobbled something together out of 1/4" steel plate and aluminum rod (caliper spacers and wheel spacers). I don't have the measurements nor do I have the bike, but it wasn't that tough if you own accurate measuring equipment and a lathe and drill press. I simply spaced the wheel to suit, then made a bracket for the front caliper. I had to eliminate the speedo drive/spacer, but that is pretty typical when fitting wrong wheels to a bike. the bolts with the head on the wheel side are pretty close to the rotor, but they fit.
