Star hub reproductions that are equipped with tapered roller bearings require an uniform 11/16” axle center part. Harley Davidson axles for Star hubs (all Knuckles and Pans, SV Big Twins 1937-1966, 750 twins 1937-1951 rear, 1966 Shovels) have a center part with only the first 1-1/4” measuring 11/16” while the rest is reduced in diameter. On this reduced diameter a 11/16” Timken bearing will not fit, of course. On the other hand, a uniform diameter goes very well alongside with OEM star hub bearing sleeves, as these sleeves only touch the axle on their initial 3/4”. (The other side is borne by the brake side spacer.) Slight modifications may be required if you notice excessive wheel sideplay.

If you use the axle with an OEM Star hub, a 1 mm thick washer is required under the hex head.
