Re: 110 70 17 front tyre - petani - 24-01-12
The correct move is to put a wheel from FZR400RR which is identical to the FZS600 and behind a wheel of YZF1000TUNDERACE and so you can enjoy a much better grip.
That way they can find and widest range of tires 120 and 180.

Why much better grip though, if the compound is the same the grip will be the same.

The dimensions of these wheels is 3.50CH17 and 5.5CH17 while the fzs600 is 3.00CH17 5.00CH17 and thus not sit well the 120 and 180 joints.
I had for 5 years and led them in the street and truck days ...... really can believe me that the difference was great.

So you have tried it? Great!
Does the speedo fit spot on?
Bearings, axle? Can I use them from FZS, or I have to get FZR400 axle and bearings?
160 rear is common, but 110 is a bit harder to find, so I'd look for front wheel swap.
Re: 110 70 17 front tyre - Lumpy - 24-01-12
I expect it may have been but as mine is a commuter with occasional big bike chasing, I'm content with what I have. Not keen on the 023s though still prefer the Dunplops Roadsmarts wet and dry.

Yes all the same for the front wheel. Only difference is in rear wheel and you have to made two adapters to use the axis of the FZS.

The problem existed in Greece, where I can not find 110 front rubber and so began to Looking How can I correct a 120.

Can you describe the adapters and what model the Thunderace's rim is?
I put recently a 3.5 rim from a TRX850, same model as the FZR (F-52).
Thanks
Re: 110 70 17 front tyre - petani - 24-01-12
Excuse me my fried but I've sold the rims. But remember that the bearings of the YZF is 28 mm thickness and FZS 20mm. So I made adapters with external diameter 28 and 20 hole like that of the photo.
The model is 2000 YZF 1000 THUNDERACE

I think I have found bearings that would fit without the need of adapters:
Thunderace: 25 (inner)x52 (outer) x15 (thickness)
Fazer: 20x47x14
Conversion: 20x52x15 -This measurement is easy to find, so putting that rim would be an easy job (If I am not wrong)

By the way the YZF750R fits the same rim.

I know, I was talking about the rear. I do not know why there are a 3mm difference between your measures and the ones from the shop.
I do not think I will do this, I will try the 170 rear first.
