Removable steering wheel
 
I installed a quick release removable steering wheel adapter onto the standard hub and love it. It does move the steering wheel a little bit closer but I don't notice the small 1.25" difference. The outer diameter of the adapter matches the outer diameter of the hub so it looks nice. There was a modification I had to do to the standard hub, I had to open up the inner hole about 1/4" for the horn part of the adapter to fit inside.

What hub did you use. I would like to install one so I can go back and fourth from the Moto-Lita and a second wheel.

A nice little modification. That could come in real handy.

561,

I purchased a NRG thin version from this guy: http://shop.vendio.com/crowderscusto...074/index.html I called him up and ordered it over the phone, he got it to me with the wheel I ordered within 2 weeks. This was the cheapest price I could find.

Just realized this is NOT a simple bolt on addition! The screw holes (MOMO) work perfect but you have to machine the hole larger (~.25) on the BDR hub for it to fit. Would I do it again? YES, the more I drive it the more I like the closer 1.25". The other nice thing is it matches the diameter of the hub unlike others that have a smaller diameter. I might have the hub anodized black to match...
