K100 rear Wheel / Rim converting
« on: June 08, 2017, 01:56:36 AM »
Hi together!

I'm a little frustrated. I read in this and other forums that it is no problem to adapt a K1150 wheel to the K100. (ok, perhaps with an adapter..)
Now I got one with number 2 331 357 ....
First Problem is, the casted bolts for the break disc. I have to cut it off....
But there is also big difference in the offset of ~17.5mm. Which means that I have to mill off 17.5mm on a lathe.

Do I have the wrong wheel?

Thanks.

Thanks Martin,

I know this table. My wheel is listed below, but it doesn't fit without massive modification. I'm not sure if I should do that. The easier way would be to use an other wheel.

Did anybody put a K1200 Rim on the K100? Is there any modification necessary? Spacer?
