Thanks, muellersq! Mine look identical so at least we're good there. My rear wheel is spinning free as a bird now with the new bearings and spacer. Prior owner must not of thought the spacer did anything. I can torque down the rear wheel and it spins just fine now.

OEM should be fine. Check out GoFasters (site sponsor). They have a hardened left side they sell. The right side is on backorder right now.

Just finished installing the chain and torqued everything down (by hand not torque wrench) and it spins free as can be. I think 98nm is a bit shy of where it should be torqued to as that is just barely hand tight, IMO. I'm not risking losing an axle nut in the woods. I'd say if anyone's rear...

Thanks a lot. I pulled my wheel apart to do the bearings today and low & behold there was no hub washer between the inner and outer bearings on the drive side. That could cause a bind I'm sure. I put all new bearings & a washer in there mounted it up and it spins free as can be with no...

That's what I was thinking too but wasn't sure. Go figure, the right side spacer is on back-order from Spain. If you could post a pic of your new one that would be great. Much appreciated!

Thanks.....is that lip on the end that seats into the seal or the outside that the axle enters through? Mine has a lipped edge on the inside (hub side) that is rather thin leading me to believe it is mushroomed a bit. Both of the outsides have an edge to them but it's pronounced and definitely...

Oddly enough my rear wheel was binding as well. I ordered an aftermarket bearing kit from GoFasters. Does anyone else's wheel spacer on the rotor side have a lip on it ('06 EC300)? Just making sure mine isn't mushroomed from being over-torqued. I grabbed a hardened sprocket side spacer...

Thanks, Neil. If that is the case I have the brake light wired properly. Seems as if my contstant power (yellow to violet) is not getting juice then as it will only go on with the brake applied. Need to trace that out. The front light is non-LED and the original plug only had two wires...

Thanks, guys. It appears that a solid yellow wire is the AC power but the yellow with green stripe is ground. That is how I have it wired up. Odd that the white wire would allow the brake light to function if in fact I did not have direct power going to it via the Violet wire. The white wire...

I wired up an aftermarket headlight & LED tail light to my 2006 EC300. No go on the headlight at all but the tail light works ONLY with the brake applied - nothing constant. I wired in this fashion: Violet wires - HOT Yellow w/ green stripe - Ground White wire (tail only) - Brake switch...

I was watching those bids! Glad you got more than you wanted man! I'm going to WD-40 the snot out of my side panels and "restore" them, LOL!

Thanks! All the wires appear to be there so I should be good. He even put dielectric grease on them.

Ok, understood and thanks!

Hey Dean, I sent you a message on eBay last week on this setup. Granted your "buy it now" price is $80...you willing to budge at all? I'm in Mass and am intersted in those side panels but not much else. However, with a varied price, I'd just take the whole lot off your hands. Feel free to PM...

Hey All, Just bought an Acerbis headlight setup and a Baja Designs LED drop down tail light for my '06 EC300. From what I understand and can see, these bikes come wired for light setups and the original owner passed me the tail light and stock headlight for which both were smashed. I'm...
