Supermoto EXC 300

I have an enduro bike that I want to put supermoto wheels on.
I really miss the road and want to have a bit of fun when I'm not racing.
I can't afford another bike (although I've been tempted by some cheap RGV's
on ebay).
There's loads of wheels on ebay, but I haven't a clue about which ones will
fit.
My bike is a 99 exc 300.
What do I need to measure?

 

Mr Wegg of this Parish has done a motard conversion on his DRZ. There
were spacers and other things involved IIRC.

 

Everything

I'm not sure if KTM use modular axles or not, but I'd highly recommend
you ask here

as it's the busiest 'motard forum (in English) on the 'net

Ta. I can see two routes. Measure everything and get a cheap set of wheels.
Or ring Talon. But the wheels start at £900 ffs!
My bike was only £1500!
Mind you. I know once I start riding it that I'm gonna want to start racing
do I don't want a shite set.
Then again I don't want to start racing and look like I'm any good.

 

The only thing I get from my trade is free pens and a few books!
Wanna swap for a week or so?

Blagging trade discounts rocks.

FC Trotts are in Pinner Road, Harrow now. Have been for quite some time.
Be quick though, I hear young Freddie is selling the business to return
to USA.

 

Andy Wegg says...

I daren't say what I pay for tyres, chains,spares etc. I'd get lynched.

 

Andy Wegg says...

One of my old mates had a Mocheck Harrier 400 Four[1], with an ice-cream
van chime wired into the horn button. Much merriment was had when he
rode past or local hang-out with the horn button pressed.

[1] All white[2] with 5 spoke Lester alloys, a dinky lille bikini
fairing and Yoshi bits inside the motor. It got severely written off in
an argument with a Jaguar belonging to our then MP.
[2] Hence the ice-cream van tag.

 

Blank ones, with lines or squares.

 

Cheers, I was hoping to get some on ebay. I just don't know what ones fit.

 

Probably a lot more than I do so you're okay as far as I'm concerned

You're a journo, so yousll understand this.

Why use 3 words when 20 will do?
