- 17x4.25", 17x4.50", or 17x5.0" rear rim sizes.
- Your choice color combination, with rims being limited to black, gold, or silver. (17x4.50 is limited to black or silver.)
- Hubs use original bolt patterns for rotors & sprocket.
- Includes rotor & sprocket hardware.
Tire Options:
- Choose: Many tires available to suite your riding, from road-gripping performance street tires to dual-sport tires that can tackle the roads as well as some offroad riding.
Optional Accessories:
- Add a Brake Upgrade to make your conversion complete and also offer much better performance than the stock rotor and caliper.
- Moto-Master Street Kit:
Floating 320x4mm front rotor, adapter for stock front caliper, and stock size rear rotor. - Moto-Master Flame Racing Kit:
Floating 320x5mm front rotor, 4-piston front caliper, braided stainless front brake line, and radial front master cylinder. Also includes stock size Moto-Master rear rotor. - Moto-Master HALO Racing Kit:
Floating 320x5.5mm T-floater front rotor, 4-piston front caliper, braided stainless front line, and radial front master cylinder. Also includes stock size Moto-Master rear rotor.
- Moto-Master Street Kit:
- Upgrade to Titanium rotor & sprocket hardware.

- Add a Front Sprocket from Moto-Master to dial in the drive ratio for your riding.

- Add a Chain to fit with your new gearing combination. Choose from the high quality options shown: Moto-Master, EK, Vortex, and more!
- Add a Shortened supermoto Kickstand will help to keep your bike from tipping over with the smaller supermoto wheels. Stock stands are too long and cause the bike to stand more upright and fall easily!

- Add a Chain Block to prevent chain slap on the wider tires! Recommended for 160 tires.

- Add a Speedometer computer kit, for a new digital display with multiple gauges to replace the stock unit.

PRE-PURCHASE SELECTION TIPS
Tires & Rear Rim Choice: What fits the swingarm?!
The type of riding you plan to do, as well as the tire model you want in your conversion kit, will both affect deciding the rear rim size. This is because some tires are much wider than others, so they can interfere with the tire causing chain slap on the tire and possibly rim. Read about the rim sizes below to see which size might suit you best, as well as which tire models fit the best.
- The 17x4.25 rim size will come with a 150 rear tire and this is great for nearly every street supermoto rider, and is still great for the occasional track day. With this selection, you can pick any of the tire options and still have good room between the chain and tire/rim. However, there are a couple tires that aren't offered in a 150, so watch for tire models that note this size restriction. This size also offers the easiest installation and removal for quicker wheel changes.
- The 17x5.00 rim will come with a 160 rear tire. This combination is a good upgrade if you are a more advanced rider, someone who wants to do more trackdays, or if you are an aggressive rider in general and want more traction. This rim size also sets you up if you decide to race on track in the future, because the supermoto-specific slicks are all sized for at least a 17x5.0 rim size. Keep in mind that some 160 tires are a lot wider than others, so they'll either have really bad chain run or just not even fit in the swingarm. With this size selection, avoid the dual sport type tires from Avon, Continental, and Shinko, as well as the super wide Dunlop street tires.
- Avoiding Chain Rub:
The GasGas, Husqvarna, and KTM models generally have decent clearance between the chain and tire, but if you select a 5.00" rear with a 160 tire, it may be best to add a Chain Block to your Conversion Kit.
INSTALL TIPS
- Fork Guard Clearance:
Fork guards will need to be slightly trimmed to provide extra clearance for the edge of the tire, as well as the larger brake rotor. - Front Brake Line Routing:
When bolting the caliper back on with the new 320mm rotor, it's best to route the brake line on the inside of the fork leg to avoid any outside impact. This can prevent the line from being ripped off and ending your ride or race. Carefully route the line by positioning enough slack on the caliper side of the brake line clamp to allow the line to sit directly between the rim and the rotor. Avoid letting the line sag or sit loosely. If necessary, you can secure the line to the inside of the fork guard by drilling small holes through the guard and zip-tying the line in place. See picture for example. - Rear Tire Clearance for 17x5.00 rim & 160 tire:
If you didn't purchase a Chain Block with your kit, then pay close attention when mounting the rear wheel. If the chain is within 6mm or 1/4" from the tire, you may want to order a TMR Chain Block. This will prevent the unsightly chain rub on your tire and wheel, and also limit the chain from greasing your tire. - Colors & Cleaning:
White and lighter colors are harder to keep clean, as well as matte finishes. Powder coat finishes are smooth and can be easier to clean. All finishes can be damaged by brake cleaner and other harsh chemicals! Whichever cleaner you prefer, you should always rinse parts right away. Our friends at Core Moto recommend Lemon Pledge wipes on anodized surfaces for good cleaning without risking damage to the finish.
