i was told i can use crf 450 sumo wheels on my 07 husky te 510. has anyone here tried it ? what was involved in making them work ?? were they stock honda hubs ?? thanks guys, scott
That's going to take some serious modifications to work. Different axle size, disk size, spacer sizes etc. They are far from a match but also not imposable I'm sure.
Not to mention the potential stand off of the caliper to the rotor. If you have access to lath and mill, you're good about reading bearing exchange data and pretty creative they could be made to work but it may be a daunting task.
ok .... i thought i read somewhere at some point that it was amuch more simple thing to do. ill just keep looking for a used set of husky wheels. there are so many sets available for the hondas ... just thought it would be a cheap way to go but not of its that much work. thanks guys, scott
what about KTM sumo wheel, would it be the same hassle? is the only simple solution Husky wheel for my te610? sm510 and sm610 are the same right?
if husky is the only oem option what all is needed? rims, caliper with some spacer thingy, front brake lever assembly.....
Here is a sample SM kit from motostrano. There are lots of other options too so give them a call if you want more info. http://www.motostrano.com/suqukit.html GP Cycles http://gpmotorcycles.com/ is another good source of info since they run/ran the US Husky SM team. When I converted my '07 TE, I bought a set of used SM610 wheels from a guy on a forum along with a big front brake set-up and that was it. You could get by with your stock front caliper and just get a relocator bracket to start with and then get a proper SM front brake when $$ and time permit. I think all of the modern Husky wheels from at least 2006 - 2009 and maybe older ones too are interchangeable so that is the easiest way to get a taste of SM.

Might want to check the classifieds! I believe there might be something in there, I moved a couple of threads that were in the general forums in there, so you may have missed it.
