Didn't I read on here somewhere someone was using an F4i front wheel?

 

Where are you located? I've got one sitting in my garage.

 

Texas.... Dallas/Fort Worth area...

 

Anyone ever use an F4i or f4 front wheel???

 

NO, an F4i wheel isn't the same. It uses different brake rotors so the 'hawks won't bolt on.

An F3 or 94-97 VFR750 wheel will. They are NOT a 3 spoke design tho'.

 

Have you used an F3 wheel before??? Did you change the bearings, rotors and everything from the Superhawk?

 

F3 is direct fit but is a 6 spoke wheel, you can match it with the rear of a 900rr. Obviously that's not a stock front end but it is an F3 wheel I changed to get on there. Stock is a direct fit like I said before same rotors, bearings....

 

You could keep your eyes on this. EWWw just saw the shipping $88!!!!!

Yeah, that seller is on crack. I think there's another on eBay that's charging $132 or something for shipping.

The F3 front wheel really fits with using the spacers? Wow. How'd you figure that one out?

 

I'm running the VFR wheel (same as the f3). Everything bolts right up with the same fasteners, spacers, rotors. Easy and IMO looks better too. Note: the black is glossy on those wheels and not like the flat black of the 'hawk.

An F4i with its rotors "may" might work but that's just a guess on the wheel spacers and rotor spacing. The wheel specs are the same (3.5x17) as the VTR but the rotor carrier bolt spacing is different so 'hawk rotors won't bolt on.

Cool? Or do I still need to call you?

 

As long as the price of the wheel isn't high I'll pay the shipping....
A used wheel is like $275-$325 from a salvage place here.
New is like $550.

 

Naw it's cool....
I really appreciate the help guys....

 

Just wanted to thank you guys for your help....
I got an F3 wheel today and put it on..... Another Hawk free to ride the roads....lol
Thanks again
