Hi Drifter Riders, I'm a late bloomer but i want advise on a couple of things for my 2002 Drifter 800.
1. First, I'm wanting to add a shinko lowest profile whitewall tire on my REAR wheel. Any suggestions or issues with that?
2. I also want to replace the stock front wheel with a 21" or bigger spoke rim. If not possible, then what is the thinnest and tallest size whitewall tire to replace the stock tire?
I would appreciate any suggestions and shared websites, thanks in advance to all who will respond.
21" won't fit inside the fender; too tall....19" will. I have a 19" Shinko WW on my 1500 (same front end as the 800) from a Vulcan 88, however it is not not a wire spoke wheel...it's cast aluminum. The matching rear wheel is a 15" with Shinko WW. both are powder coated to match my custom paint. Not sure if there is a 19" wire spoke available that will fit. Plus, you have to drill out the 88 front wheel to fit the front Drifter axle.
