F4i Front wheel

Anyone know off the top of their head if the F4i front wheel I have is of any use with either regular SH forks or with USD forks from an SP2? Already has no bearings so changing them is not as much of an issue as proceeding without them might be. This wheel should he considerably lighter than the stock anchor and it will therefore certainly wheelie even easier,especially with a Pure spooned on... and since the Michelins are perfect from the factory imagine how much better it will corner with no wheel weights needed!

Sorry bit no it will not fit either set of forks you have listed.

Just being goofy. Michelin claims that the reason they have no mounting dot on their tires is that they are so perfect there is no light spot.....

Anyone need an F4i wheel with or without rotors and a decent Q2 mounted?

That is what I bought for my RC51 forks but apparently it won't fit. Can anyone expand upon what dimensions don't work? Have not had a chance to try and line things up yet, working on race tech internals at the moment.
