Nice! Thanks guys I appreciate looking out for me. I wouldn't say the sidecases are perfectly aligned either... based on the joker that installed them! LOL

Here's another picture that should help. Notice the mirrors are similar and so are the fairings. It's not perfect but it appears much closer.

James: Do you plan on leaving yours flat black or are you gonna PC or paint it to match the front. I'm still unsure how to handle mine because I hear the green wheel strip on the SE's are actually painted on. I'll be PC'ing mine for sure but how to duplicate the wheel strip is the issue. Maybe rim tape and the 3 foot rule will work

Ok so I'll admit this rim along with a 150 rear makes that look pretty badass and sexy. I will admit I've been doing a lot of hating on people for wanting a wider rear tire, but only because they pinch in the stock rim. Seeing as this keeps the tire from pinching, I say this looks awesome, and it makes the user of the radial tire able to get the look/performance they want without pinching the tire and potentially loosing contact patch at full lean. looks great.

hmmm... A 150/70 would be taller right? I think that would be pushing the limits especially if you have any kind of a hugger.

I did my swap last night and I'm testing everything now. I will warn anyone looking to do this of a couple things I came across during the install.
1. This mod can not be done with stock chain length and the 15T upgrade front sprocket. I had to go back to the stock 14T to gain some additional length in the chain so the tire could clear the swing-arm near the engine. I plan to adjust the rear sprocket size to regain the gearing upgrade ratio the 15/45 gave me. I'm think a 14/42 combo will be pretty much do the same as the 15/45. 2. Some modifications may be need to clear the stock chain guard. I cut a small notch in it that is pretty much invisible under my Scott hugger. 3. The clearance to a Scott hugger are really close right now. I'm thinking once the rear sprocket is changed and I gain some additional chain length, it will help move the tire further away from the hugger. I looking now for additional options for a different chain/hugger set-up. I'll try to get some pictures of these concerns and this mod later this weekend.

Here's the best one I have for now. You can clearly see the shapes of the tires are totally different.

I will also warn to those that it may matter..... The "flickibilty" of the bike has been noticeably reduced. For the first ride with it this morning to work, I found it to be more of a predictable flick but definitely different. It reminds more of my 08 CBR 600RR so the bike still changes direction quickly but just not as quick.

Here's another option for those wanting a wider rear rim to properly mount the 150 tire....

I believe you are also gonna need a set of custom spacers, the ones he puts in the hub there look like they are custom.

It would depend if you had a motorcycle junkyard to look through for parts, find a wrecked or dead NSR with a 4.5x17 rim and snatch it up as cheaply as possible.
I did find some new rear rims on ebay for $500, but they were 4.5x18. And I think there's a way to use the front NSR rim as well, I spotted a custom Ninja250R with that 6 point front rim on it, with a different brake rotor design. That's a vinyl wrap on the MotoGP scoop nose from A-Tech, and a Ducati tail kit, and some sort of blue/purple iridium coated windshield. It looks like it just jumped out of a time machine from the 60's. |

So far that's the only stock swingarm mod I know of, all the rest are swingarm swaps, which seem to me to be the better way to go in terms of swingarm strength and safety. |
