wheel

Hello Friends, I have been rebuilding my forks on my 1986 this week and upon removing the wheel I saw that the bearings are not sealed but open rollers. They seem to be fine, but I thought since I had the wheel off I would replace. Should I go back with the open rollers or replace with...

I am installing a 17" wheel , a welded up radial. It is pretty heavy. I can't seem to.get the wheel to engage with the pumpkin. Any advice as it's a bitch to move around. I got the axel.to.go thru but won't extend past the pumpkin as the gears won't align.

Rumored to be a replacement for the Brembos on the Ducati Panigale. The wheel is also a prototype and has been awarded the coveted "more-organic than carbon-fiber" award by a leading environmental group.

Had my rear wheel off to replace the brake rotor & decided to re-balanced my rear wheel. It had 3 oz on it & I've never used that much when I do the job. Whoever did the job before didn't have the weights at the light part of the rim but it wasn't very far off, like maybe an inch & a half...

Hi all, I know there's heaps of posts about wheels.... though just wondering if any of you have had the luxury of test riding ALL the variants of wheel sizes... 15", 17" & 18" on the gen 1? and if so, overall pros and cons. I do a bit of touring on mine currently which has stock 15", looking...

Do I assume a Gen 2 rear wont fit a Gen 1 - or needs so much work its not worth it?

Ok if I switch the 240 wheel and tire back to the stock wheel and tire do I need anything special bearings etc?? Thanks :punk:

Can't seem to find an answer to this, but is there any functional difference in the factory front wheels? I like the way the 85's look, but I wouldn't want one if it is heavier or weaker.

Hello guys I am new to the Vmax and I have been doing some searching and some of the post are old and I see a lot of vendors have decided to go a different direction. Hard to sort on google without getting skewed results when sorting the stock wheel look with a swing arm and by 17s and 18s...

So I'm looking for a wire wheel for my first Gen and can't seem to find one that fits. How hard is it to make an adapter for a wheel and what wheel should I use? I've seen people mention Harley wheels.

The 200/50 shinko is too wide. Looking for who's used what on this wheel. Thanks

I am looking to get a 17'' or 18'' rear wheel for my 2006 so I can put radials on it. If anyone has one for sale please let me know! Thanks

what is the most likely cause? tweaked fork or issue with the fork brace? causes a tiny cant in handlebar when riding. new to me 2001 and just getting ready to dive in to a few minor issues needing correction before I ride it. looking for suggestions, tia!

Need some help guys. My father in law vmax needs new front wheel bearings. Stock "96 wheel. How do u get the bearings out of the wheel? Cant get them out with a screwdriver of something becouse of the axle hole? Any tips to get them out. In 1 piece?

I have a used wheel and tire for a 2001 vmax the one side is very good the other has pitting and oxidized chrome. No dents or other damage.

So i took my bike for a ride today after changing to r1 caliper and ebc hh pads, When i put the front brakes on the front wheel hops and pulsates? I scuffed the rotors prior to new pads.? About the front ens: I have the 17" cycle one off front wheel with rotor adapter, with stock rotors...

Is there a way to get a rear wheel that will take a radial for under $500? anyone selling a used one they don't want or is able to give me directions on how to go about making one like getting a gsxr wheel then having the center welded. when i looked around its pretty expensive for those...

Ok..so problem is wheel is 10mm to left which although considered normal on a max seems very odd to my mind. So after researching this and investigating the wheel I've worked out the following. Swingarm diameter where shaft goes is 61mm OD. Allowing even 3mm wall this leaves 55mm. Shaft is...

So I have a thread about the front wheel... I am finally getting to the rear wheel! Here's with it off the bike and at night. I will also post it when it's on the bike ready to roll!

when I had all my gen 1's I saw a stand here and there but I see most Gen 2's have stands. The 2015 I bought came with a rear stand. Is this due to the no center stand ?
