If you want to go that route, just flip your rims.

I've used wheel spacers and had no problems at all with them durablue makes em i got mine from rageperfomance.com but i haven't been to that sat for a while so don't know if it works if the R is not listed 400/300ex and the suzuki/kawi 400's all use the same pattern as the 450R

I dont get it. Whats the problems with wheel spacers. I was thinking about getting them all the way around. Its much cheaper than a-arms and an axle...

For harcore MX its not a matter of if they will break but when they will break. They put a ton of leverage on your spindle making it harder to steer, and Increases your potential for the bars being yanked out of your hands or breaking a spindle. Just make sure you have a steering dampener and turn it up the full way. :p

If you do any jumping save your money and buy an axle. Wheel spacers on the rear end greatly increase your chances of bending/breaking your axle.
