I'm taking delivery of my new baby THIS Sunday.
I wanna replace the steering wheel with something sexier.
What hole pattern/diameter do I need to get??
I saw some cool stuff on eBay, but I don't know what to buy.
Any help would be appreciated.

I'm in the same ordeal, same steering wheel as my old yamaha and I hate it looks cheap. I'd say it is 3/4 tapered shaft more than likely but haven't pulled mine to check yet

I agree that Axis steering wheels look like they belong on a cheap golf cart. Let me save you some aggravation. I'm trying to change the wheel on my 2015 A20. I can positively tell you that it IS NOT a 3/4 tapered shaft. It is a 19 spline shaft. The trick isn't finding a wheel, it's finding a hub. I ordered a Gussi with a 6 bolt pattern and a 3/4" tapered keyway hub. Of course it didn't fit. I ended up selling it.

Grant makes a hub to fit their 5 bolt wheels with a 19 spline shaft. There is also a Uflex adapter for a splined shaft. I'm looking at a wheel from forever sharp steering. They are billet aluminum wheels and have a 19 spline hub option. Waiting on them for a custom quote for the Axis logo on the center button.

So far, wheel/hub options I've found are:
Forever Sharp
Schmitt
Uflex
Grant

After buying one wheel that was wrong, I'm less inclined to be adventurous and order a hub that isn't attached to the wheel. Most wheels come with a 3/4 tapered hub attached. Finding a 19 spline is more difficult.

Is this the adapter you are referring to?

Yes, that is the hub from Forever Sharp. I believe it is the same as the Grant adapter (3650-1). However, difficult to tell because most of the time, the Grant hub shows a picture of a keyed hub while the description is for a splined hub. Both 5 bolt with a 19 spline hub. Plus, the hub from Jegs is on a slight back order.

The existing hub of Axis steering wheels are one piece, molded with the wheel. I got mine off without a puller, but it is only a year old.
