i need to put my wheels back together after powder coating.now my mechanic ask whats d offset?ive no idea where to check it.does any of u guys ever deal with this issue?
I've heard of wheel offset for cars, but not for a motorcycle. Seems to me that the length of the spokes pretty much dictates what any offset (if any) the wheel is going to be at.
Now is a great time to learn how to build a wheel. If you're not happy with where it is offset wise.. you will be able to move it over yourself.
u c offset is to make sure that wheel will be in right position against wichbone and sprocket so chain wont damage tyre
if any of u guys can check it for me distans beetwen a rim and brake disc in a straight line.ill add a picture to show u what im looking for.check this picture.if u will put something straight to brake disc and distance between rim and brake disc thats offset.can u check it guys in your bikes?if u have 610 sm please
I've measured the offset in this way, from the outer side of the disc: The offset is very little, as you can see: I've utilized the caliper only as a straight object. I've used a ruler to measure the distance, which is 3 mm. I think that I can say that they are more than 2.5 mm and less than 3.5 mm. Don't worry about the protruding sliding part, because the distance measured has been taken about where there is the green arrow: and that point is flush with the bottom part of the caliper. During the measurement, I was pulling the disc outwards making it touching the edge of its seat, beacause it's floating and this could have altered the distance.
