The 5 Spoke Ducati 916 wheel has a
different offset to the Triumph one, so this had to be
addressed.The old wheel locating
dowels were pressed out and 4 new ones turned on the lathe with
an extended shaft to pass through the alloy wheel spacer.
The Ducati wheel has a narrower hub so
the 955 axle shaft had to be shortened and also the threads
extending further towards the hub face, not an easy task on a
case hardened shaft !
New lock ring holes were formed using a
carbide burr in the mill.
The Triumph wheel nut collar didn't
match the 916 wheel so a new one of those had to be made aswell.
