Wheel fitment help
Hi all,
Bit of a vfr noob question but...
Are VFR400 rear wheels exactly the same as RVF400 rear wheels? (apart from the fact they are 18")
Could you take a RVF rear wheel and put it onto a VFR with original VFR wheel nut and 'washer'?
What about RC30 wheels? I think they directly fit VFR's but require a new wheel nut??
The reason i am asking is because I am trying to source some new PVM wheels and want to know if I order a RVF set they will fit my VFR.

Re: Wheel fitment help
RVF and VFR wheels mount identically to eachother. I ran an RVF wheel on my VFR for a while and never had an issue. If you are having difficulty getting PVM's sorted, I'm selling my white RVF rear (just recently powdercoated)
