z1000j rear wheel central?

Gents,
Does anyone know if the Z1000j rear wheel is centrai in the swing arm or is there an offset? I will soon be trying to fit a three spoke triumph sprint wheel with a 180 tyre in a JMC arm but have no reference point.
Anyone with similar experience?
Thanks in advance.
Martin

i seem to remember reading a good article about this n the reference point is the centre line of the headstock should be aligned with the centre of the rear wheel giving you a true centred alignment.then sort the chain-run via offsetting 1 or both sprockets and accurate spacing.. hope it helps.. mark

Thanks for the reply. I was hoping to make up the spacers whilst the swing arm was off of the bike.
