KR1 - KR1S Front Wheels

Post by 500bernie »

Hi Guys,

I have an RGV wheel for the rear and wanted to know if I can put a KR1 3 spoke wheel on the front to replace my 5 spoke KR1S one?
Are they both the same sizes?
Are they both interchangeable?

Cheers,
Bernie :D

They're different mate, and wont just swap staight in. Also, the KR1 front rim is a little narrower from memory too. I seem to remember someone saying it could be done with a bearing swap, but can't be sure.
May be a better idea to go for a ZXR400 or the matching RGV front wheel perhaps.
