6 Spoke wheels, F3 Front/900RR Rear
Well as some of you guys know I bent my front wheel... After I looked more I found out my rear was bent and leaking air too... Well I decided to switch to 6 spoke wheels so I went with an F3 front and a 900RR rear wheel.... Everything lines right up with no problems... I kept my front brake rotors on, but used the rotor off the 900RR on the rear.(I was lazy)haha
I need to polish the lip on the rear one, the front was already half azz done....
Prolly do it this weekend....

I used my factory spacers and rotors on the front wheel and used my factory sprocket and bushings on the rear.... Any F3 front wheel and any 900RR rear wheel.... And they are 17" so your tires will work...
The reason you don't use the 900RR front wheel is because it is a 16" wheel...

Looking around on ebay, the F2 wheels look to be VERY similar to the F3. If I remember correctly, werent the two bikes identical minus the body? Ive been looking around online but cant find anything to confirm or deny that the wheels are the same.

Hmm, Good question, I would think you could use either one because it's a direct fit for the VTR,(meaning if you can use the VTR one they should be the same measurements), so I would assume the parts would be the same. I'll do a little research on that.
