Default 18" front rim ?? .. cheap motard ?

Has anyone tried to lace up a 18" rim to the front hub ?
I'm wondering if this could be a viable street/motard option.
Keep the stock rear rim as is, and put street rubber front and back.
Just change the front rim, spokes, and both tires.

Possible ??

D607=cheaper than both .......will make you think your a comic book super hero ....when you get board of those then pony up the money.....for as long as the rubber lasts you have plenty of time to save for the rims and spokes to relace to the OEM hubs.
