Wheel sizes?

Post by red17racing » Mon Jul 09, 2012 4:13 pm

Just signed up to the forum as I'm looking to buy an FZR as my next bike (currently racing a TZR 250, but looking for a change to the dark side for the road / trackdays).

Been looking through the forum / spec information I can find and the main thing I'm finding confusing information on is the 17 - 18 inch rear wheels. Is there an idiots guide to which models (if any) have the 17 inch rear as standard - or are thay all 18's?

Howdo, welcome.

17 inch wise - you need an FZR400 3TJ and (I stand to be corrected - a 3EN2)

Where you at? A friend of mine is selling his 3TJ in sheffield.

Stand corrected chuck, only the 3TJ had a 17" wheel :grin:

Try this link to the FZR models http://www.madsi.co.uk/models.aspx
All the 1WG's have 18" rears (including the 3en2)

All the 3TJ's have 17"
