Call/email kneedraggers.com to check on what "mm" spool you need. I thought the measurements were for the spool itself, when it's actually a measurement on the bolt you'll need to secure the spool to your swingarm.
Two things I'll be watching for in time:
1) Attachment bolts coming loose. I'll just re-tighten after first few rides.
2) Apparently I've read the bolt gets rusty? If it does, I'll run to hardware store and replace for a buck.

Perfect fit and easy install
By chuck from Westminster, MD on 10/04/2008
Pros: 10mm is perfect fit on my ZX-14. I still don't understand while bike manufacturers don't install swing arm spools.
Comments: Don't forget the lock tite

Pros: great product! i love these things, it makes it so easy to lift the rear of the bike especially if your using the vortex rear stand.
Cons: no cons, just a hint: when you install these spools put some removable lock-tite on them so they dont come off with vibration. im on my second set because one of the spools just fell off one day
Comments: would buy this product again, great purchase. the only thing to consider when buyin is that the colored spools lose there color where the rear stand touches the spool. the stand is made of metal... (Read the rest of this review)

Spool-tastic!
By TomTheGeek from Madison, WI on 07/01/2008
Pros: No emotional baggage what so ever. Let me explain. I had some spools I got off eBay but when I crashed they bent the spool mounts on the swingarm. Then, after ruining the swingarm one of them decided they wanted to be free rather than suffer a life of rear stand oppression and jumped off the bike on one of my many parade routes. This caused great depression in the remaining spool and we had to euthanize it.
Not wanting to deal with THAT again ( and realizing I had puck bucks that were about to expire ) I came to the fine folks at KreeDraggers and promptly found these great spools in a myriad of colors. I was happy to discover that Emotional Baggage was NOT on the feature list and that they were available in the soothing 8mm size that I so desperately needed.
A few mere clicks and they were lovingly packaged and sent off on a whirlwind tour of the postal system on the way to my door. It was love at first sight. We went straight into the garage and I mounted them all night long.
Cons: Sometimes I feel like they don't appreciate me as much as they used to. Also it wouldn't hurt if they took out the trash once in a while and helped with the laundry.
