I jump my 250R alot, can u bend or damage your back hubs easier with wheel spacers,,, or do they make a difference?

you will bend your axle very quickly with spacers. The hubs will be fine.

k... i'll take them off for now....

idk ... i might keep them on and bend the axle.. it will give me an excuse to get a new one.

If you have the spacers that use the long bolts thru the hub/spacer,they can shear off.Not pretty when a rear wheel passes you up.
