i thought everything we did was called stuffing around.
it should go pretty easily Jimson.
i take it it's to fit the bigger 250/360 bikes?

Offset is wrong - monoshock rim sits too far to the right.
If you fiddle with spacers to move it to the left, then you'll have chain alignment problems and the sprocket mounting studs hit on the swing arm.

You can move rim over by retensioning the spokes, but its not ideal.

hi just went to shed and checked my bike i did this last year i used twin shock spacers and brake, modified the swing arm where sprockets bolts was going to hit shorten sprockets bolts a bit .all works well and inline with front sprocket and in centre of swing arm yes can be done cheers George
