have a 1998 cbr 900rrw with the 16" front wheel. can anyone tell me which 17" wheel will fit?? been all over ebay ect everyone listed ie vfr nc will not fit the rrw any ideas???                                                                                                                                                                             

Nope... but welcome to the forums anyway 

                                                                                                                                                                             

I think older CBR600 front wheels will fit (off a carbed bike). Might be worth a try...                                                                                                                                                                             

Hi Burbrew. Just buy a 2000 blade. Honda threw in a 17" wheel for free. Would putting a 17" wheel in a bike designed for a 16" just slow the steering down by changing the trail ?                                                                                                                                                                             

go for a pair of zx9r b model forx and wheel n stuff! nice long solid kit, and most excellent to adorn any potential streetfighter!!                                                                                                                                                                              

thanks.... but anyone riden a blade with a 16" front wheel?????? just so wrong its great at speed but for road riding its just pants(or i am.... not sure which) im sure there is someone that has done this mod and knows what they are talking about... for some reason where ever i go people say the usual routes ie cbr 600 vfr 800 wont fit on the rrw...... why???? they seem to fit on other models and is a great road mod... please help... this blade is trying to kill me..................

the fartblood used a slightly higher profile tyre on the front effectively making the front end a 17"   They didn't spend all that dosh on research for nowt!   Blades are slappy and twitch like buggery, I've ridden em all, its in their nature.... older Gsxr's used to slap worse! Its more to do with wheelbase/fork trail/headstock angle than the wheel. You can get an adjustable yoke set if you like spending money.   ps, I'm a test rider and I know these fings......or I say I do!                                                                                                                                                                             

I beleive the wheel from a VTR1000 will fit.
