Not as far as I know.
I've been lurking on this, and other, forums for too many years and I haven't come across it done. It may have been done in the 90's but I've never seen anything in print about it.
Good Luck!

why not do the rgv rear wheel conversion and fit the rgv front end, this will allow you to get good quality 17" tyres :)

I have an Aprilia RS 250 wheel for the back :shock: and needed a similar 5 spoke front wheel but with a speedo drive because i'm keeping the standard LC clocks .

Saw a KR1S with RGV forks and a KR1S front wheel at the Stafford show but had no camera :cry:
But it looked like it used the KR discs and even the KR calipers :shock:
