Setup Recommendations For Your Bike:

• Fork Guard Clearance:
  Fork guards will need to be slightly trimmed near the edge of the tire, to prevent rubbing.
  
  
• 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 Fitment For Rim Size:
  150 rear on 17x4.25 and 160 rear on 17x5.00.
  
  
• Tire Clearance from Chain & Swingarm:
  Most tires don't measure true to size, so the actual tire width is what needs to be considered when picking tires. This is most true for 160 tires used on 17x5 wheels. Most performance street tires from Metzeler, Michelin, and Pirelli are on the narrower side, though they still measure more than 160mm wide.
  
  For the best tire clearance on the RM/RMZ, select the 17x4.25 rear wheel size. The 150 tire used with the 17x4.25 wheel size is highly recommended as your best option.
  
  Fitting a 17x5 rear wheel with the 160 is possible on the these models, but it's not easy! The Michelin Pilot 2CT is the narrowest and best fitting tire if you choose this size. Since the swingarm tapers and gives less tire clearance the more the tire moves forward, you will need to keep the wheel further back in the swingarm. To accomplish this, you may need to play with sprocket size combinations so you can properly tension the chain while keeping the wheel positioned further back in the swingarm.
  
  
• Avoiding Chain Rub On Rear Tire:
  It's highly recommended to run a Chain Block on most any RM/RMZ due to the tight clearance between chain and rim/tire.
  
  If you plan to run a 17x5.00" with 160 tire, the Chain Block is absolutely critical to avoid chain slap and a greasy tire. Proper installation of the chain block with the wheel positioned further in the back of the swingarm will provide just a couple millimeters of clearance on either side of the tire. This is as tight as it gets and just barely works!
  
  
• 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! Dish soap in a spray bottle is a great option, but no matter the cleaner, always rinse parts right away.
