See if you can get some 17 inch rims to fit from the ZX6R. I have 89 GSXR 750 (3.5" & 4.5") wheels on my 85 ZX600R racebike but they were done by Kosman Racing in S.F. California. I'm sure you can find something that will fit. Just may have to get new, different size wheel bearings (due to the smaller axles).

 

I have considered that, but I have a very limited budget. I have tuition for spring semester due in a few weeks, and that is going to put me back until the beginning of the summer. I can afford to do the tires if they cost me up to like $350.

 

Take some measurements and compare the axle point dimensions or go to a motorcycle salvage shop. You can find wheels with tires on ebay for half that price.

 

Axle point dimensions?....help me out here, I am pretty new to the whole "doing anything besides riding" thing...

 

Diameter and length.

 

Dragone#19: What is your stock tire and rim size?

 

I have the 06 10r manual in front of me, but not the 1990 zx-7 manual for axles.
180/50 and 120/70-17 Dunlop 208 gps.

 

The ZX6R's have 3.5 X 17 front and 5.5 X 17 rear. Measure your width at the fron and rear hub/ axle to see if it will fit between the swingarm & forks. The axle diameter isn't to big of a problem. You can get smalled I.D. bearings & spacers.

 

hmm, 16" rims is all it has?

 

Yea, 16" rims are all it has...I still have $2,600 to pay off in tuition, so I just need the best bang for the buck.
