Check this build thread http://www.kdxrider.net/forums/viewtopi ... t=flywheel. I believe there is no offset and as long as you stay under a 160 on the tire you should be ok, but I have not built a Motard wheel

Kevin T from Warp 9 says the offset for a kx wheel is 18 to 20 mm from the mounting flange of sprocket to outer edge of a 17 x 4.25 rim laced on oem kx hub I will try in the middle of what Kevin said and adjust if I need to

Update 19mm works should have went to 20 though tire is really close to chain when you center wheel like an 1/8 inch from tire to chain I used a 150 70 17 Shinko dual sport 705 tire these are the specs on tire rim width 4.25 overall diameter 25.28 width of tire 5.94 max load 716 max tire pressure 42 tire rating H
