Ducati rear wheel conversion RC36-2


Potze

Question

Does anyone here have experience converting a Ducati 888 rear wheel into a Honda VFR750 RC36-2. I myself am thinking of using a Honda VFR400 NC30 rear hub for this. Should this be possible? Any help would be appreciated.

Having the spindle (and/or wheel) modded for different wheels has been done for a while over on hawkgtforum.  I had my Hawk modded for a VFR wheel and there has been plenty modded for Ducati wheels.

You might pop over there and poke around.

I think you meant to say Ducati 848 rear wheel as 888's do not have single sided swing arms. 

No personal experience with RC36-2 single nut conversion. The only RC36-2 single nut conversion I've seen is on Intagram from Japan (https://www.instagram.com/p/CTHWb3xnjeN/)

Don't know what he used, though judging from the size of the nut, looks like a Honda rear hub (https://www.instagram.com/p/BDImq_KEYl6/)

There may be a kit like this, https://www.extremecreations.com.au/1098-ducati-hub-conversion-kit-for-vfr800  around so you can just mount in the Ducati hub, spindle, wheel & brake. Sebspeed was talking about making a kit like this also.

Hawk spindle is pretty easy to modify for Duc/VFR rear, but the VFR spindle is not.  I put a Hawk spindle that was modified in the Tyga 4th Gen, and could run nc30/35 or Duc wheel.554579821_vfr750(19)b.thumb.jpg.7ed60180ccadd05387a3efce3271da73.jpg

You might try a pm to @SEBSPEED. Pretty sure he will have be in the know.

 

I have done the conversion using Triumph parts. I modify the wheel stub of the Triumph axle via machine/press fit/weld then add spacers and drive pins so it all can be bolted in the 750 swingarm.

I did make a run of these kits, and I still have a bunch available.
