I just picked up a MC18 and plan on turning it into a trackday weapon.. So far I swaped the front end to an 07 cbr 600rr fork set up. Now I am looking to swap out the rear wheel for a 17'' wheel. I was planning on using an f2 cbr wheel but cant seem to get it to line up right. What am I missing? Is it possible to do this conversion?
Thanks
Jamie

might be easier to use the 17incher from a mc21.
you'll probably have to have new spacers made up to make sure its central.

I put a 5K rear on my 2J, but it does slow the handling down

alright... I figured it out finally. Basically the measurements on the CBR F2 wheel are the same as the NSR wheel except that the hub on the CBR is off set about 3/8 of and inch or 9mm approximatly to the left (if you are looking at the bike from the rear) I can still make the wheel work but I am going to have to have the 3/8ths difference machined off the sprocket carrier and will have to make up for it on the other side with a 3/8ths larger spacer.. I think the stock CBR spacer may work for that.

also Dunken I would love to get a mc21 wheel and try it but being that I am in the US. Those part are hard to come by and to expensive for experimenting with.... CBR stuff is dime a dozen.
