Re: swapping wheels...
Anything can be made to fit with slight modification. I have the R6 Swingarm and can mount the 99-02 R6 Wheel.

Re: swapping wheels...
He swapped his whole swingarm to the YZF600R Swinger. There's a writeup in the forum here somewhere, and there might even be one in the Wiki. When you go to the YZF swingarm, it look alot like ours but has a 17x5.5 rim on it as opposed to our stock 18x4.0 rim. The 5.5 came with a 160 section tire on it stock (I think), but I'm pretty sure PMF has a 180 on there now.kikepiz wrote:I know PIMPMYFZR has an avatar with a wide back tire, have any pics of this swap?
