larger swingarm and rim

[cnyoung]

Howdy, i have 96 kat and would like to in the future widen or put wider swingarm with wider tire for a 180 ,my questions is how dose the drive sproket line up with the wider tire? Do you need an offset or maybe a bandit 1200 drive spoket? i have not heard anyone address this

I was able to easily fit a 5.5 with 180 mounted without offsetting the front sprocket, by only modifying my swingarm and making a new brakearm. See the full thread by clicking on the link in my signature.

What's with the pop corn?

I have too found, and I have measured, used a plumb line and a laser..
That a 5.5 rear wheel will line up fine too..

Want to see the finished product. This is an interesting topic.

Your engine cradle came out similar to mine Raff...
Is that a foot peg welded to a clip on?
