hello there! i am fitting two xj600 1990 wheels (different colour..black as opposed to all silver) onto my 1989 xj600. the rear wheels goes in but when i tighten the axle with just a little torque, it stops spinning freely, ie sticks and i can hardly push it. is there something i might be missing? eg are the wheels compatible size wise. in all other respects they seems identical, although the chain/alignment adjusters took some squeezing in.. if i don't tighten the axle nut it spins ok. am thinking spacer maybe, there is one on the left side, the right side hooks into the rear brake armature. any pointers very welcome as am loath to roide it with the nut basically hand tightened..
