Wondering if you have seen any. A guy I know has them on his 2004 but isnt sure if they come with Cush Drive he seems to think they dont. Any of u guys know?
 
Yes, they come with cush drive and have done for several years.

To be sure confirm this with the dealer before buying because I have know some back of garage wheel building to go on when relieving themselves of unsold stock items - i.e. rims and hubs mated for convenience IYKWIM?

KTM and Husaberg offer the wheels in both cush drive and non-cush drive form. Like many Husaberg parts, since there is no difference they might have the KTM stamp on them somewhere.

Like Simon said, just be careful to make sure you are getting the one that you want.

OK here is the deal....KTM and Berg's use the same part numbers but one uses a hyphen in the number and the other does not.....ok I said it !
I buy all KTM stuff because its cheaper ! I bought a wheel set awhile back from a KTM dealer......saved abunch of $$ for the set which includes extra rotors etc.....axel sliders are half the price etc etc etc......
I run cush drive with a 5" rear and 16.5 front...."IF" you have chain rub or muffler rub... I don't btw then bush out the can that 3/8" or whatever and do a spoke offset...maybe 3 full turns max.....due the spoke offset before bushing out the can, it may slove two problems....done ! I use cush drives for two reasons
1) I believe its easier on the running gear
2) I have two cush outer hubs with two different toothed sprockets....can you say 5 minute gear change ?? :twisted:

There is a reason why all the fast guys use 5" rims and bigger....16.5 is having its share of contaversy.....rules wise anyways, thats all I know...

I know a couple guys runnin 5.5" the new prilly will take a 6" easily....where does it stop ???

I'll say this....with the new set up and getting some coaching from roadracers on suspension set up my bike now handles so well its hard to describe...
 
Thanks for the info. I'm thinking about adding an FS650 to accompany the FE650 I love. It distributes city abuse and adds a great track day bike to the fold.
