What will work (rim question)

ok. . .i got a 98 900RR with a (what i think, is a) stock 16" rim. both the rotors are bent. and its hard to find 16" front tires at my local stealerships tire dumpster, actually, damn near impossible. i want to put a 17" rim on it, with new rotors...here's the quesiton, what rim, if any, will bolt over to my 98 without having to fabricate anythign or change calipers? if nothing will, what 17" rim set up will BOLT over with the correct wheel spacers and caliper set up?

need to get on this; my front tire's almost bald from trying to learn stoppies; i cant find any used tires at any of the local stealerships that are 16" and i do NOT want to have to buy a new tire

Get An F3 Wheel, You May Need Adaptors For The Rotors.

Re: What will work (rim question)

adapters? will the F3 rotors work for my bike? cuz the ones i have on my 98 are bent anyway....so i need to buy some new ones and figured it owuld be easiest/cheapest to just buy the rim and rotor together


will the wheel adapters work, or do i need to get different ones etc
