Default RE: Motard mods??

Personally, I would like to get another set of rims and have them laced up to the stock hubs so that I can just swap out the entire wheels for when I actually get a chance to go off-road. I am probably going to do most of my riding on the street so having a set of motard wheels just make more sense.

i set of sm wheels and tires will also drop your seat height a bit,if you're inseam challenged like me that's a plus also.

Required for a KLX supermoto: 17"x3.5" front and a 17"x4.25" rear, a "big brake" setup up front, as well as some nice supermoto tires. I am in the process of trying to build the ultimate Dualsport/Street Supermoto/Woods bike. I have my dirt wheelset, along with a the parts to build a SM wheelset. I have a set of Continental Contiforce SM's, sizes 120/70/17 and 150/60/17. I just picked up a 320mm front rotor, so now all I need is to acquire a caliper relocating bracket, lace and true the wheels, balance the tires, assemble my bike (frame, swingarm, and sidestand are being powdercoated) and get it tagged/registered for street use. Damn I still have a long way to go!
