Depends on what year. Earlier models had 18" on the rear. The later years went to a 17" (not sure when they did this though). Sure one of the other boys can answer that one.<br><br>I have the 18" on mine. Have considered swapping out to a 17". There's a couple threads somewhere around here that discuss on how to do that. But, if aren't worried about going down to a 17" then stick with the 18" which I would assume is what came stock on your bike. <p>Nate<br><br>87 FZR1000<br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>This space for rent</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i></i>

Don, you are correct. However, this is the SECOND time you have posted "FZR100". I'm bwginning to think you have small bike syndrome.<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Clint.</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;">'87 FZR1000T</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:white;">gen·e·sis (jen-i-sis)n. pl.:The coming into being of something; the origin.</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><br><br></p><i></i>

Bike's Too Fast

Post by djalbin »

Clint,<br>The reason the FZR1000 gets converted to FZR100 is because the bike's so fast that the last "0" keeps sliding off the end. I will have to glue it on better and maybe it will be able to stay on for the ride. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>Don <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :cheers --><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ...
