YZF-R125 Wheels

Been offered a set of wheels from a 2009 YZF-r125. They belong to one of our sales managers in the US and are spares off a race bike that he used for wet tires. I would just need to pay shipping.


I’m wondering if they would fit on a standard LC or RZ chassis.


I know some people have swapped the YZF 125 forks and swingarm onto the LC. I was just wondering if anyone knew off hand or could measure the distance between the forks and the swingarm where the axle goes on the YZF bits.


I was thinking of using the wheels on a little vintage track bike but didn’t want to take them if it meant I needed the forks and arm as well as they wouldn't be legal

So I ended up taking a punt on these wheels. For $100 shipping its not much risk, even if I just end up selling them for that.

I know the LC only weighs about 10 or 20kg more that the YZF so I'm not worried about the weight, although I'm a bit of a fat b*****d compared to the kids that normally buy these. But for anyone that has fitted these wheels was there and issue with the 40 additional horse power???

Loads have used the rears on ypvs hybrid builds with no problems

$100 is a bargain
