I have a 2002 model WR426 which I use for trailriding. I've heard you can put RGV road rims on. True? If not, how do I get wheels to suit? Larger discs - Same callipers? Can I keep trailriding her then easily change wheels/gearing to suit road riding/supermotard? I'ts all new to me. Please help.

Use 3.50x17" front, $.25x17" rear one place here in the states is Buchanan Spoke & Rim www.buchananspokes.com lace them up to stock rims to save money. Also Braking Brake systems make rotors and calipers that bolt right-on with NO modification needed. Nice stuff good value for the dollor. www.brakingusa.com They are based in Italy so you may be able to find them closer to your home.
