Harley 16' wheel and disc brake on a Triumph pre unit.

Itsnotatumor · 2023-01-21

Looking through this forum, there are older threads but not answers I am looking for. Has any one customized this? I am having a rear rigid frame to be built to fit the swing arm 1959 frame and I have found a few concerns. If I am correct, the normal inner diameter of the Triumph rear wheel section is 8' inches. I have an older frame that is unusable. It measures 8' inside wheel diameter. If I go with the 16' wheel, with disc on right (sprocket on left), I have a weird feeling the rear wheel will be offset and cause dog walking down the road. (slightly sideways). Im assuming I'll need 9 inches clearance (inner diameter) for the wheel and disc to fit properly. Has anyone else attempted this?
