Radial on K75
« on: July 24, 2018, 11:36:45 AM »
I have a K75, 1995, with 3.0 tear three spoke wheel. I want to put a 15/70/17 rear wheel on, has a shim in the wheel, but the radial  is 11mm wider than the stock bias tire. will it work, or will I have to add another shim.

Too much shimming and you'll scrape the centre stand on the other side.

The shims are closer to 1.3mm, hope three will be enough. Tires ordered, shims waiting to have some fun getting things lined up.👍
