It's not an easy fit so I'd say forget about that. A Bandit 1200 wheel (5.5 inch) is relatively easy fit but no one I know makes a kit yet :wink:

Another easy fit is a GSXR 1100(750?) circa 1992-1995 ie model just before the SRAD GSXRs'

Northwind is still working on his :roll: :lol: and I've not found a wheel yet :roll: :lol: .


Cheers

I'm sure it can be done. Didn't they fit one to that curvy on "All the gear no idea"?

Anything can be made to fit with enough effort. IIRC the new GSXR ones need the sprocket carrier machined down, and maybe the hub too, plus spacer work.

I bought an SRAD 600 wheel but, after a good measure up I decided basically it was too wide at the hub and needed too much modification.

I made the same mistake so I sold it and bought the Bandit1200 wheel.
