1.) Has anyone here done a supermoto conversion on this specific year/model?
2.) I know a 4.25" rim with a 140 will fit, is it possible to squeeze in a 5" rim with a 150?
3.) I've seen mentioned in some threads that husky wheelsets are identical to GasGas. For what years is this true?
4.) Gearing recommendations for street riding?
I know this bike will be extremely impractical, but it's a project idea I've had for quite some time. Any feedback or advice is appreciated, thanks!

1. My son did something similar to his 08 or 09 model. Although the 14 has a different frame and forks, things regarding wheels and brakes are quite similar.
2. I think he used a 4.5" rim with a 150/70 BT090 tire. I wouldn't use a 150/70 tire on a 5" rim.
3. I don't know about that, but in case it is true, it would be the italian huskys. I know they use the same rear sprocket, but I don't know about the rest. Motocrosscenter sells complete SM kits, https://www.motocrosscenter.com/shop...bs-196601.html.
