17 Inch wheels was created by KraZy650
Hi,
Im 16 and just got a 1980 kz650 to rebuild for school and i was seeing if i could put 17 inch rims on it so i could have a bigger tire selection. It has 18's right now with a 110 tire. I wanted to see if a wider 17 inch rim would work with the stock swing arm and front fork set up
Thanks:)

Usually in order to go to wider rims you either have to change front and rear ends or make modifications to the spacers. I have 17's on my 1000 but I use a FZR 600 front and rear end.

What year was the FZR or what years can you use?
