Slightly alarmed!
However thinking about it the KTM rear wheel I'm using came as standard with ally spacers and my Triumph Daytona 675 has ally spacers as standard too. Plus the spacers contact with an aluminium swing arm.
Wouldn't the majority of the loading be put through the wheel bearings, axle and chain adjuster bolts?
I'm not saying Deefer is wrong and I am right, just that there are a lot of spacers out there that are ally. I have aftermarket captive spacers on my track Daytona and that has had no problems after 3,000 miles of sole track use.

Feel the Fear and do it anyway!
