Bought two weeks ago 1999 900 in english green.After I notised somebody had already changed the engine

seems like the older model(if somebody knows what year)and also wheels and swing arm.

My question is possible to change back the rear wheel without changing swingarm just dont like the 160/60 18 tyre to 5,5-17 .

Hi! Looks to me like you have the wheels off an earlier (pre '96) model and an older style engine too (the engine for '99 model year was black).

May I ask why you would want a smaller rear wheel?

Changing the rear is no great hardship in the event that you go ahead.

engine seems to be almost new I think the orig.one just didnt last that long.

wider rear just looks cooler to me.Problem is the swingarm is also silver colored and older models can I just swop the wheel and thats it or I have to change sprocket carrier also and would it be then in the same line with front wheel.
