Yamaha TRX850 Enthusiasts Forum

Hi
I have just noticed a flat spot on my rear wheel, doesn't seem to affect the bike but I would like to replace it. I have looked at repairs but they are about £75 so I'm not wanting to go that route just yet (Plus hassle of removing old tyre posting it etc) I seem to remeber seeing that the FZS600 Fazer rear wheel is a direct replacement and as it is a newer more prolific bike I think I would be able to get hold of one a little cheaper than the £50 plus post that a TRX wheel seems to cost. Any thoughts about suitable wheels would be appriciated.
I would like to keep the 160 rear as it handles so sweetly on them.
Thanks

i don't think it is a straight swap but shouldn't be too difficult?

Personally I'd bite the bullet and buy a TRX wheel. You know it will fit and it will be the same design

The rear wheel is the same as the Thundercat and FZR600R

I have one with a nearly new Dunlop Roadsmart
