Rim lacing pros, please help

Edited Date/Time 1/12/2020 5:34pm
Just attempted to lace a wheel for the first time. Followed the youtube vid by Rocky Mtn atv/mc and I wound up with every other nipple being way further up the threads. Does the hub need to be reversed? Should I just give up and sell my bike? Help!

Need A better photo of your pattern.

Your side that is closest to the table seems right.

Honda is a 3 cross up front. Back longer spokes outside. Download a service manual that matches the bike :]

Hard to tell from your pic but it looks like you've got cross three on the bottom and cross two on the top.

Flyin-W nailed it: Honda (and new FE KTM/Husqvarna's) runs three-cross. Re-do disc side and you should be set. Install outer spokes first, then inners btw: Keeps you from criss-crossing your way into more problems!
