1987 K100 spoked rims?
« on: January 22, 2018, 05:56:25 PM »
Hi there, im looking for spoked wheels for my 1987 K100?
What BMW model wheels will bolt right up, without changing anything else, except maybe the tires.

thank you

Not exactly a bolt on wheel like i was hoping, but thank you.
Looks like the rear caliper carrier is different. Its a little beyond my level of comfort.

There is no model of BMW spoked wheel that will bolt up to your bike without modifications being made.

The good news is that you can change the sound of your bike by using a different muffler rather than by attaching playing cards to the fork sliders so they'll make noise as they hit spokes.
