Title: wheel swap question??
Post by: doqq on December 25, 2006, 05:04:26 PM

well...I got a 99 gsxr 750 front end im planning on doing a swap with but i dont want to have two different looking wheels.  is it possible to swap the rear wheels without major modifications? i know i might have to do a swingarm swap too.  so, is there anyone out there with some wisdom i can borrow?

Does that bolt right up Jay or do you need to have spacers made for it?

no wider wheel will just bolt up spacers always need to be made and wheel alignment checked gsxr400 wheels bolt right up and maybe a rgv250 wheel but other than that there is katana wheels 4.5 " 5.0" 5.5 " katana gsxr 600-1100 bandit wheels your choice your hard work !

well guys, im gonna sell the 99 gsxr front end i have and get the 1990 gsxr front end i found thats already complete.  wheels will be more of a match and it'll be a cheaper alternative to have clipons and dual front brakes.  thanks for your help though.
