Post subject: 17" wheel conversion Posted: Thu Sep 02, 2004 3:12 pm |

There used to be some information regarding a conversion to 17" wheels on a Paso. Is that information still available?
Anyone have any good tips on such a conversion?
Thanks

You can find the information from Links and there Ducati Paso personal pages and choose Bauke Miedama`s pages.
There is a story going 16" to 17" wheels.
Personally I woud choose wheels from Suzuki 600 RF, because their look is just like 750SS wheels, but you dont have to change bearings for these, they will fit with the orginal bearings, and they are much easier to find and cheaper.
You only have to make new fittings for front and rear brake calibers(buy the brake discs with the wheels).
And new spacers for the wheels in order to get them straight line.
Also make sure to get the speedometer rotor with the front wheel.
You need new rear chain sprocket, Suzuki 500GS sprocket will fit your new wheels, it got 49 teeths.
Also you need longer chains than regular, you have to had 108 pcs. on your new chain, in order to get new wheel far enough from the rear fork.
Hope this helps your operation
