Hmm, thats a bugger. I have a feeling CC will be getting a piece of my mind if the 1717 shows up with a 6mm shaft. How hard is it to proof read your website? Seems like we do it fairly frequently (check this thread for examples...). I will have to contact CC about sending me a modded shaft to replace the 6mm unit... Of they can send me about 50 mod 1 6mm bore pinion gears to replace my stock...

I had a kb45 turned down once, but it was not ground for a flat area yet. I had to make up a pvc collar as the machinist did not want to magnitize his lathe with the rotor magnet. A real PITA, spent about 1 hr at lowes getting the correct sizes of pvc rounded up. Then he had to turn it to fit the rotor to clamp it properly. A grinding stone and partial throttle should work, but I really do not want to do that to a 200 dollar motor.
