    Will 92 CBR600 f2 wheels fit on my 86VFR700?

    The tire and wheel size on the CBR are front 120/70zp17 and Rear 170/60zp17

    The actual answer is yes with some modification or in combination with other parts. You can't use either as is, with no modification to the bike or the parts. A Hurricane front wheel will fit, but theres little benefit in doing that. The front usually is done only with the front end being replaced with the same F2 pieces. The rear is easier with just the spacers and brake calipers needing to be replaced.

    Hi there! I bought a VFR700F2 (87) a month ago and I noticed that the rear brake pads/caliper where 1/2" off. I then realized that PO changed the Rim but not finished the job by changing the rotor or the caliper holder.

    Anyway, any suggestions on which are the proper mods options I have? The wheel is 17x4.5, 6 spokes, 4 holes for the rotor and has a smaller rotor, the rest is original.

    Thank you!

    PS: Yonan, love your 1986 VFR750F! Mine is the white 87 and I also have an 89 Transalp with that color scheme, I wish could've gotten yours to match ;-)
