16 in rear wheel solution?

[ottovalvole]

Hi
As everybody knows there`s a problem to find a desent rear tyre for our beloved 750 Sport and Paso. I have beeen thinking, is it possible to make the egde of the rim taller by welding and machining, and a 17 in tyre could be used?
Does someone know if it can be done?
I think the Oscam rim is much better looking than the newer 3 spoked SS rim is. It disturbes the design of the bike if you convert to 17 in SS rims like many do. That`s my opinion.
Also, does somebody knows if a 16,5 in tyre could be used?

Regards
Ottovalvole

Not on 16" rims. For sure, if you fit 16,5" rims...
