Rear axle length

[cliby]

I'm considering fitting some RC51 wheel to a different swingarm/bike. Can somebody tell me the length of the rear axle from just under the head to where the threads start. In other words the length of just the shaft of the axle please?

thanks

silly newbe. every body knows that when measuring shaft length, you go from behind the nuts to just past the tip.

wait, how is it that you joined in 04 and only have 8 posts? I still couldn't resist though.

HA! i knew when I wrote that it would attract all the wrong answers. I have a superhawk and speedzilla just isn't active for that so I use superhawkforum.com which I use a lot. I have modded mine though and put quite a few RC parts including the front end, which is why I occasionally post here. I search it a lot for information.

so does anyone out there have a measurement.

in case anyone should ever need this info and search, the answer is: 12.75 inches
