1 A simpler wider wheel thread Thu Jul 13, 2017 12:21 pm

Not to disparage the other thread but I have a simpler question.
I've recently converted my 86 K100 to a paralever rear end and it already has the 4V center stand. My next project is to convert the front end to K1100 stuff.
Is anybody here running K1100RS (or K100RS4V) wheels on a 2V K100? (3.5x17 and 4.5x18)
The reason I ask is that I've got a nice set of K1100RS wheels I can use BUT I'm thinking they're a bit heavier and will take a little more oomph to spin up. Just curious if anybody else has tired this yet.
