I used an 1198 wheel with the large axle here’s a pic of the wheel the larger the offset the easier it is to fit

In that case, the goal is the wheel, but I won't be using Ducati axles and stuff. Goes against the grain on a Honda (apart from the wheel of course 🙂 )

 

Anyone got an accurate Ducati wheel offset? Hard to measure exactly. Is it 23mm or 7/8"?

Hi Ken,

here’s the details of the Ducati wheel i used and the original vfr wheel

I have done the conversion using Ducati rear wheel and keeping all the original vfr components just made a new shaft to marry both together and now have a 200 rear tyre fitted.

Can't say for sure since I haven't tried the 848, but probably, I belive the 749s had a smaller axle as well.

I didn't even think about axle sizes, I just wanted a 6inch wheel, so went with the 1098. Got lucky that it was an easy swap.

I'll take the forged 848 front wheel off your hands, just to help out.

.CENTRE NUT REAR WHEEL CONVERSATION 
I have just finished manufacturing a rear wheel conversion that takes the Ducati 1198 wheel (17x6). 
The nice part about this conversation is that the only item changed is the rear axle everything else is standard OEM.
If anyone is interested in this conversion I can supply this and all you need to do is purchase your own wheel.
Pm me for details
