Help Needed Supermoto fiting problem

[Karinshi]

Hi guys

I had a problem mounting my supermoto wheels and I'd like to know if you can help me.

I've mounted the Galfer disc DF606SM which a lot of people have on the Varg and the 320mm KTM adapter that also a lot of people have. I've attached a video where you can see that the rivets that join the black floating piece of the disc are hitting the 320mm adapter, and the only solution I see is to sand the adapter to create a gap.

VIDEO (IS NOT A VIRUS TRUST ME): mp4: varg disc problem.mp4

A friend tells me it could be that the hub bearings aren't perfectly centered. I bought a new SMPro rim.

Does anyone have any ideas?


Also, after finishing the wheel mounting, I noticed that the suspension isn't level; it's chopper-style, very low in the rear. Do you recommend adding preload to the spring, by twisting the spring to raise it? Any other suspension adjustments? For now, I've set the compression to the maximum because it felt too soft.


Thanks a lot.

thanks, but no real solution... they talk about the SP066 adapter which doesnt exist in any store right now, im sure there is another solution/another adapter

Yes, This is the disc I ordered. I got the KTM brembo spacer. part number 77013914000. The disc is 4.5mm while the stock is 3mm so there was a little rub on the caliper spacer at first. I shimmed the wheel 1mm away from the disc side fork, but eventually removed approx 0.5mm of material from the caliper spacer where the disc rubbed.

Appears to be exactly yours?

Yes!



Dave told me that and i bought it (I'm not blaming him), but I don't understand how he managed to install it with the same disc as me without any problems. I have a picture of his setup.

Check if your wheel is in dead centre.

Maybe even have the hub moved a bit to make sure that hub and disc are in their centres.

In the video, it looks like the disk is to the left of the caliper.

Thank you for the help guys, the disk was a little bit to the left, but cant be fixed, i sand by 2mm the adapter to make a gap and now is working fine... the other solution was buying the Galfer SP066 adapter but is out of stock everywhere

I encountered so many problems mounting the SM Wheels... i thought i will swap enduro/sm set up "easily" and frequently but i was very wrong... im stuck on SM for a while now...

SOLVED

Thanks a lot
