Help! Problem with fitting a M600 rear wheel in my 600SS
The 600 Monster wheel came complete from a crash damaged bike, yesterday I put it into my 600SS and noticed I had a clearance problem with the sprocket nuts hitting my paddock stand mounts, as this doesn't happen with the 600SS wheel I wondered why it was a problem with the monster wheel. I found that the sprocket carrier on the Monster wheel had several more millimeters of sprocket offset as though it was designed with a 180 tyre in mind. The part number on this sprocket carrier is 16010042A is there any way I can check to see if tis is the original M600 carrier. Also while checking out the offset I noticed the coned spacer on the sprocket carrier was in the wrong way round once I had managed to dig it out I found a naffed bearing and circlip.
Cheers Frank, I was wondering if it was a carrier off a 900 model can't see as its for a 600 due to the chain alignment unless a 600 monster has a offset motor compared to the SS either that or the wheels run out of line
Kev,I crossref'd the part no.s and it looks like you have a sprocket carrier for a 900 Monster.The 600 Monster part no. is 160.1.019.1B(Model year 2000)
Cheers Keith that was the conclusion I was coming to. Luckily I have the original 600SS carrier, I was hoping to use the monster one for quick gearing changes when at the race tracks.
