Anybody have any idea what road bike wheels will fit on a 2002 KTM 640 LC4e. Most road bike wheels seem to have left hand chain right brake disc, whereas my bike has them the other way round. This is an attempt to do a budget supermoto setup and keep my other rims for adventure work. Buying aftermarket rims is too expensive. All help very much appreciated.

Surely it doesn't matter what the chain is on?. Just flip it around! You'll just need to change the direction of the tread......we'll that is my $0.02 worth! Not a voice of experience - but this seems logical!? Anyone else concur?

i have installed two three spoke mags into my 660smc as spares , using a GSXR600 rear(4.5 wide) and any 3.5 wide front, again it was a suzuki, as i had it in stock, it came off a GSX750M, you have to be creative with bearings and spacers, find a good friend who's a engineer of fitter welder. good luck.
