well thats the wheel f***ked

Post by AHTHUD » Thu Jul 30, 2009 7:51 pm

Well I truly f**ked the wheel trying to get the bolts out (got the tap hole off centre and then lost my temper and drilled abloody great hole in it out of spite :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

Does anyone know if a fzr 400 wheel would fit in as there are a few on fleabay at a decent price :?: :?:

I think there was a thread here recently that some years of the fazer 600 was a straight swap....

Hi, I have a TRX front wheel you can have cheap, power coated gold ( also have a matching gold rear )

Where are you in the UK, as posting would be expensive ?

i had the same thing happen on my tls. Red lock tight i hate it. Not that you want to hear it. Some times its just easyer and cheaper in the long run to just take to the shop to get them to get a snaped bolt out. I no i found out the hard way $$$$$$$

There are a couple of other wheels you could try- FZR400 3TJ and the early Fazer 600 both used a 3.5 x 17 wheel and the same size bearing as the TRX. Good luck ;)
