I have started up the mock-up of my 17" conversion. There is still a long way to go :thumbup: But I think my plan will work.
Any tips and tricks are apriciated.

This conversion is more of a need than a want to doo. It is difficult getting the 16" Michelins, and they are a 20 year old construction.

Did you have some 906 white rims on your bike?
Good luck. I wonder if some new 16" tires come out in the meantime...
