Can anyone in the UK point me towards a spindle & spacer for my T500M?
Restoration is coming along very nicely - wheels were rebuilt with stainless spokes recently, original rims polished & hubs vapour-blasted, but it's clear on re-assembly the spindle isn't the right one, and there's no spacer.
Had an email exchange yesterday with discountbikespares who have been very useful this past year, but they can't help with this part.
Tried Suzuki Simon as recommended by someone here a while back, but have had no response. Anyone know if he's still trading?
Looking forward to sharing the results with you lot when she's done .... thanks for any guidance.

Re: Front Wheel Spindle & Spacer - T500M
Spacer is listed as available from Suzuki in the US.
US eBay lists a few axles & some of the sellers ship worldwide.
The T250 & T350 use the same axle, so you should check for those too.

Hello Digger,
I have a good condition, used, T500 front wheel spindle. It was replaced because I obtained a NOS item. Let me know if you are interested.
Cheers Geoff
