Hello i was just wondering if i bought the Oem SF wheels http://www.bikebandit.com/houseofmot...8761#sch638520 If they would fit perfectly onto my 09 KLX250S.. if they do fit will i also need to buy the axels and disc/brakes? Thanks

 

You can use your S disk. The sf has a larger disc, so you need to purchase part number 43044-0026 which is a complete caliper holder for the SF model. This allows you to use the larger diameter disc for better braking.

 

And thats all i need i dont have to buy the axel or any of that?

 

Wheels mount right up with the regular axles. I would just re-use you original disc and not worry about the SF brakes, i doubt there would much advantage in braking power with the SF disc as its pretty easy to overpower the front tire with the S rotor and brake.

Your gearing WILL be all messed up since the tire and wheel will be substantially different so your gonna need some new sprockets, also the speedo will read WAY off as well so you will need a speedohealer or 12oClock labs correction unit.

 

Alright thanks for your help so all your saying is i just need to buy the sf oem wheels and sprockets THATS it? And will the oem wheels just fit on perfectly to my s or will i have to modify it to fit?

 

Yes the hubs are identical, just the spokes and rims are different.

You don't need the sprocket but the gearing will be way off otherwise (like redline in 6th @ 75mph).

And remember the speedo will be wrong too (about 25 mph off on my bike) IE you will be going 60 and the speedo will say your going 85.

So make sure you budget that into your purchase as well or the bike will be practically unridable.

If you put your S brake rotor on the SF rim you won't need any extra brake parts.

 

Okay great thanks for the help. One last thing though im guessing im gonna have to change the suspension setup correct? Btw thanks for the pics

 

i didn't change my suspension at all. I need to get a SF kickstand or cut mine off a bit shorter though as the bike dosen't lean over as far as i would like it to any more.
