Author Message   Chasespeed Posted on Monday, March 06, 2006 - 01:25 am:        Okay, so last week, my buddy Matt, picks up a rim from a Busa..dontknow the year... Anyway, they are 6 inches wide..and hold a 200 tire.. IT FITS THE TUBER... Had to ream everything for the axle..I only talking about a mm or 2, and the rear rotor is about the same size.. only catch is..did this while installing a AirTech GP fairing ont eh bike, which was already converted to chain..we discovered the bike had to be lowered, as the chain was hitting the swingarm... Its crazy now, I forget the tooth count on the rear sporcket..BUT, he cant even let teh clutch all the way out until about 10 or 15 mph...I am gonna post some pics as soon as he gets back form Daytona..for those down there, or heading there, cant miss it..its flat black.. Just had to post this before I forgot...AGAIN... Chase   T9r Posted on Monday, March 06, 2006 - 10:29 am:        Rim size 17" X 6.0" Same as found on: TL1000 S/R and some older GSXR cycles. Awaiting photos.   Chasespeed Posted on Monday, March 06, 2006 - 12:05 pm:        Yep, he will be back tuhrsday night from daytona...SO, I will try to find a cam..adn get some pics up this weekend.... Chase   Ryker77 Posted on Monday, March 06, 2006 - 07:57 pm:        "Had to ream" whats ream? Also would the rim had worked if it was still belt drive?   Ryker77 Posted on Monday, March 06, 2006 - 07:57 pm:        I too would love to see the photo of a 200 tire on a tuber!!   Spiderman Posted on Monday, March 06, 2006 - 08:12 pm:        Reaming is a process which slightly enlarges a pre-existing hole to a tightly toleranced diameter. A reamer is similar to a mill bit in that it has several cutting edges arranged around a central shaft, as shown below.   Newfie_buell Posted on Monday, March 06, 2006 - 08:59 pm:        "Ream" can also be used as a verb in a deragotory manner!!!! "He reamed her out!!!" - Use your imagination "I'm gonna ream ya!!!" - Your gonna get a good beatin "I got reamed on the price at the shop" - I got ripped off Ha Ha Ha - I'm bored here this evening.   Doughnut Posted on Monday, March 06, 2006 - 09:01 pm:        Newfie, check your mail. (sorry, off topic.)   Chasespeed Posted on Tuesday, March 07, 2006 - 12:02 pm:        As far as working with the belt drive, I dunno...the rim has a cush-drive, BUT, anything can be done if you have enough determination... Its a 3 spoke rim, though its not twisted like the factory stuff.. Anyway, as soon as I can get a couple pics, I will post...I also have to get off my butt and install my new exhaust, and post the pics of how the bike is looking now..but.. Chase
