Default 06-up real wheel measurements

Hi, I’m trying to adapt a ninja 650 rear wheel to my dyna and Im trying to anticipate what offset trans sprocket I’ll need. Can anyone with a chain drive measure the distance from their sprocket to rim lip, and let me know what spacer and front sprocket they’re using Or does anyone know the measurement from the plane of the pulley side the hub to the plane of the rim lip?

What is the width of the Ninja rim, and the size of tire you’re planning on running?

Looks like a 2020 ninja 650 is using a 160/60 x 17 Rear tire:

it’s a 4.5” rim and I plan on running a 160 tire on it. My primary concern is that it’s a Cush drive hub so I can’t really space out the rear sprocket, I can only adjust the trans sprocket offset or offset the wheel I guess, although I hope to either center it in frame or run stock offset.
