Looking good, i think you mean mods (short for modifications) rather than moods.

Nice work figuring out how to fit the fat rear wheel _pjfa_ .

Is the front wheel going to turn red soon too?

Wheel stays black.

Here the "How To"



First
Remove the "old wheel" (13) ;D
Switch the disc (15) to the "new" wheel (can be from a ST or a 900SSie or a Monster S4)


Then, remove the sprocket carrier (21) and take off the rubber thing (27) and the washer (25) ;D


Insert the washer (machined with inner diameter of 30mm and 1,5mm wide - the outer diameter is 33mm but can be more) inside the part 22. Keep the coin to take a coffee after the assembly.




Now, the part 22 (standart comes from inside to outsite) will take place in the sprocket carrier (21)


Pic a nice tire and mount it ;D
(In my case a Continental ContiSportAttack)


Put the wheel on place and... That´s it [thumbsup]


Have fun

a word of warning

pjfa,

Very nice and I'm looking forward to seeing the finished job.

One small point - I refer to the last photo in your original post. Be careful the uncovered / unprotected lifting bracket on your paddock stand doesn't scratch the paint off your swing arm as mine nearly did!

I'd hate to see you have to take it all apart again to get your swingarm resprayed

Yes, it´s already scratched. I already bought another stand from Bike Lift. Now, I´m looking forward some paint but is not easy to find the same color of swingarm. Thank´s for your advice.

Just came back from shop.
I feel the rear is not so "rude" anymore after the bumps and I´ve got the feeling that the rear stay glued to the ground.
Also, in acceleration I don´t feel the rear compressing, seems now it´s more direct forward. I hope you can understand me.

This analisys was made after 6kms ride

Hi,

That's good to hear, I'm having a DU737 shock fitted on the 2nd December, re-sprung as needed to suit my weight and getting the front springs/damping looked at too.

Nice detail _pjfa_

How about posting us an updated picture of the complete bike so we can see the whole effect?
