[beaky]

i saw a pic the forum. someone has fitted k/r1200s wheels to his gs. quite fancy the idea myself. can anyone point me the right way or if you are or know him,mail me. [email protected].
the bike looked really good,curious as to what effect a 2" drop at the front has on the handling.
thanks

curious as to what effect a 2" drop at the front has on the handling.

Going from a 17" to a 19" front wheel will only lower the front 1", assuming the same width and profile of front tyre.

the front would a 120/70/17 i think and the rear a 160/55/17.
nice to know its only an inch drop as 2 sounded like slap city
