GSX-R400 (GK76) wheels will be a direct fit and they are a bit wider than RGV. I guess most others will fit with some custom spacers/spindle etc. ?
17" rear will give you more choice of tyres.

I'm in the same boat, what about a Bandit 400 rear wheel, would that be a direct fit?

Good topic. Rgv 17" wheels make silly money due to their apperent scarcity. As i found out when eventually getting a pair.

A guy on the KR1 forum has fitted KR1S wheels to the running gear of a RGV... on a KR1! Confused? I should say so. 18" rear wheel might limit your tyre choice I hear too.

I have a front wheel, forks etc, swingarm, but cant get a rear wheel, the ones i see are £££'s so wondered about the bandit 400. Has anyone done this?

Amazing what difference in price, just got a GK76 wheel for £15 off ebay, try that with an RGV one. Didn't realize it was wider, woohoo!!!! 160 rear tyre coming up. Steve.
