    Would any Mag 250 owners out there be willing to help me out with some measurements, please?

    I bought one of these a while ago, but the front wheel had to be replaced. I found one in the U.S. (I'm in Australia) and when it got here it has a smaller hub than the wheel that came on my bike. 140mm I.D. vs 160mm. So the axle/ brake plate etc don't fit. :banghead:
    I'd like to know which one is correct.
    I'm also worried that if the smaller hub is right for this model, that the forks I have may also be off a later model.
    Apologies for the dumb questions, but I'd like to get the bike period correct and I'm worried that it isn't right now.
    Many thanks in advance for any help given.
