    Supermoto wheels

    Originally they were fitted on a KTM 400 SXC, and it looks like it was produced only in the 1999... very difficult to come by, as most of the motards have 17" rims. For the hubs, most of the pre '01 models have the same axle (17mm front and 20mm back) so u should be able to find more models...

    Supermoto wheels

    Thanks :thumbsup: The clearance on the back is very good, with 130/80/18 tyres and a 2.15" rim I still have more or less 1.5cm on each side (3/5"). For the front I'm planing to use the stock forks, tokico caliper from a gsxr with a 0.8 cm bracket and a 300-320mm rotor with 1 cm offset. I...

    Supermoto wheels

    I thought I would share the outcome :D Incredibly light compared to the original, and fits very nicely what I have in mind for the bike. The rims are 18x2.15", so no problems with clearance. I'll need to offset the front sprocket a bit and machine some spacers. I have a tokico 4 piston...

    Yep, probably the best option would be to stick to the 17t front sprocket. With the 38t on the back it would be a 12% increase in rpm... still doable.. Yep, that would be the ideal solution... but hubs here are very expensive, double the price than the wheels I'm considering! :confused...

    @gggGary: Thanks, you gave me something to think about! :doh: The smallest sprocket I could mount on the ktm wheel is a 38 tooth.. This means that I'll be forced to mount a bigger front spocket (the 18t for the xs or create a curtom one). http://www.dropbears.com/u/utilities/sprocket.htm...

    Supermoto wheels

    Thanks for the replies :) It's very difficult to find xs hubs here where I leave, in general getting complete wheels is cheaper/easier. I'm not afraid of having to build/find spacers for wheels and rotor. I would need a new caliper on the back (I have a drum now) and see if I can find a...

    Supermoto wheels

    Hi everyone. It's my first post but I'm following the forum since more than a year I'm working on a SE from 83 and I want to change the original alloy wheels. Initially I was looking from different swingarms that would fit, but I would loose the round look so I decided to stick with the...
