Hi There
Since couple of days I'm trying to get to any conclusion regarding the rear wheel change for K1200. MY new/old brick is from 1983 so with monolever fited. Browsing few forums I got confused beacuse there is no definitivly described what is possible and what not.
On one post I read that 5 inch wheel and tire 160/... (instead of 5,5 inch and 170/....) will need only two small (2-3mm) spacers to fit the wheel. Than I see other post where someone says thatYES it is possible but with a huge modification.
So my post here is to clarify the situation by someone who did it with success.
