Rear wheel swap
02 Dec 2009 11:20
I have been looking to upsize the rear wheal on my 76kz900b. I have been looking at the factory 18" police rear wheel as a direct fit, but I saw this one and just got curious if it would fit. Any ideas?

way too wide.also aftermarket wheels come in 2 differant styles,street and drag.drag only rims are generally very thin and dont hold up well to bumps in road
if you dont want it i might wait till last minute and bid on it.id polish it up and keep a slick on it for when i want to take turbo project to track
Still recovering,some days are better than others.

If the "B" is the LTD than it has a disc. The 16" rim on the ltd will accept a pretty wide tire. At least as wide as the chain will allow.

Yes, it is a disc rear. I am just not a fan of the big and little wheel setup on the ltd and would like a more even front to back look.
Yes, I do have a picture:
