    when i rode a crf 450x i had a spare wheel with a sand paddle on it
    does any one know if you can use the rear wheel off a crf 450x on a wr 450f?
    it might need different spacers or something im not sure

    ive measured the sprocket offset, spacing between the disc rotor and the sprocket and its within millimeters ill have to check axel diameter and the internal hole size in the hub next i guess
    any one know anything about this?
    otherwise ill just sell the crf wheels and buy wr wheels

    Correct me if I’m wrong but I thought there was something different about the drive chain on a CRF to a WR???? Would this mean the sprocket was different??? Sorry cannot help on the wheel actually fitting. :( :unsure: One of my friends bought some spare wheels from a wrecker. He said it was the best thing ever for getting good use out of his tires. For races he would run new ones and when only practicing and trailriding he would run the half worn out race ones and take it out of their hide. He had to replace a few spokes and the wheel bearings and seals on the wrecked rims but after a while he almost forgot which ones were the originals. At least that story might help you convince somebody to buy your spare CRF rims if nothing else.

    i think the hole centers on the sprocket are different only the teeth should be the same

    I ended up selling the Honda wheel and buying a new wr wheel from the states
    I ended up being even on the money side even after shipping and as a bonus got a new wheel.
