Hi, a friend of mine has just got an 09 yz250f. As most of you know yam changed the rear axle from 22mm in the 08 bike to a 25mm in the 09. Of course the spare wheels that my friend has for his 08 doesn't fit the 09.

Has anyone else come across this problem? Can he change the wheelbearings and spacer in the 08 wheels, and put in ones to fit the bigger axle on the 09, or will he have to get a new hub?
