    83 gs 750e vs 83 gs1100e rear rim width

    Hi, I have a 83 gs750e and am wanting to put a little wider tire on the rear. The 750s rim is quite narrow. I was wondering if a 83 1100 rim is wider? will it even fit on my bike? Thanks Helmut

    No, but '85 1150 rear is a half inch wider and will fit.

      Hey, Thanks King ov, I just checked one out and it looks perfect. did you ever do this to your beautiful 750 before you changed your swingarm?

        Nope, jwhelan65 went that route with his '85 700.
