would u need to change brake calipers tho?? mounting points etc may vary??greeny wrote:Dont bother getting tyres to suit the rims you have on the bike.
Just buy a new , second hand, set of 17 inch rims to suit.
Neka you are right, at the very least you will need a spacer/adapter for the front caliper.Neka79 wrote:would u need to change brake calipers tho?? mounting points etc may vary??greeny wrote:Dont bother getting tyres to suit the rims you have on the bike.

$2k...mate its a 1/4 the way to buying a decent 2nd hand motard bike!!gizmo wrote:Neka you are right, at the very least you will need a spacer/adapter for the front caliper.Neka79 wrote:would u need to change brake calipers tho?? mounting points etc may vary??greeny wrote:Dont bother getting tyres to suit the rims you have on the bike.

I have investigated the motard option & for a set of wheels/spacers/discs etc etc, its about $2k which is a little bit more than a set of tyres costs....
