Several questions:
1-what exactly does offset mean in this regard? Is it the distance between the plane of the forks and the plane of the spindle?
2-what is the stock offset? 24?
3-does the 22mm set improve straight line stability or turning?
4-what is a good brand?
Thanks.

sounds like an inexpensive alternative

I was just impressed with the fact that my tuner knew the '05 450X well enough to address this deficiency through revalving. Have I adequately plugged House of Horsepower...? That is House, H-O-U-S....
