17 Inch RGV Rear Wheel Installation

Post by cpw888 »

Ok so I have an RGV 17inch rear wheel to fit onto my KRI-S.

Has anyone here done this before?

What mods am I gonna have to do to the wheel/swingarm to make it fit?

I stumbled across this. Not sure where I found it (here maybe). Looking to do this myself once I have rebuilt the bike!

Hey you don't by any chance know what bearings are used in the conversion?

Are they standard RGV wheel bearings?
