Yamaha xt600 17 to 18 rear

Hi does any body know if the 18 Tenera Wheel will replace the 17 XT600e wheel or any wheel which would do the job, only tyres are a problem in 17 not as many :?:

Hiya

The old Tenere wheels were drum brake so they won't fit, not sure if the new Tens wheel will fit.

I had a guy lace a new 18" rim onto my hub, not too expensive and works fine.

I'm assuming you have a later XT with disc brake but I'd do the same as Dan suggests, a new rim could be cheaper than a Tenere wheel anyway

Dam, just got one on ebay for 65.00 looks like it will be relisted.
thanks gents for the feed back

I suppose you could buy a quality MX/ enduro rim, (it'll be tougher than another XT rim- good for rough stuff) cut out your spokes & loosely fix them in the wheel to get them pofessionally tuned. It would keep costs down, which seem to have gone through the roof since I did it.
