ha yea it does. hey FD racer, what part number is the hub adaptor to make a momo fit? I'm getting a wheel on eBay and gotta know which adaptor to get. Also did it bring the wheel any closer to you?

Momo adapter K 5702

yeah I think it did bring it out a bit closer, I remember the turn signal indicator lever being a bit futher away. I have no complaints about it though.

Thanks, I want it a little closer so my legs have more room, being able to get my knees under the wheel would be nice

Well, I love my Momo (commando) but it's just slightly in the way of the speedo. Like between 70 and 100km/h I can't really see the speedo needle very well.
But to get to the topic: the hub/adaptor for the Momo (and others with the same bolt pattern) does fit just right, there are no real gaps or anything.

does anyone have any problems using the smaller wheels without the power steering? is the effort all that much more?

Seems to me its easier.... but i dont know. I have removed teh P/S but kept the P/S rack, so its even harder to turn than non-ps. i love it, the way a sports car is supposed to be.

most of the time the improved grip makes it easier to steer... but if you go too small in diameter, then it makes it hard to steer. 350mm is the smallest I'd go without power.
