    19" front wheel for '83 550L

    Are there any other GS models/years that won't fit? I'd like to keep the same mags and single disc, just a bigger front wheel. I know that'll narrow it down. Different sized axles or anything like that? Searched around and couldn't find anything specific about it. Just scored a good running '83 that I'm thinking of bobbing, I've got lots of fab and dual sport experience but this is my first cruiser and first GS, looking forward to it. Thanks for everyone's time.

    Word this a different way...

    Is there any reason a 19" wheel from an 80-82 GS won't fit?

    Another question: Does anyone know if suzuki changed the axle to crown length when changing the front wheel sizes? Just thinking about how much switching to a bigger front will affect COG...

    Current plan is to do a rat bike out of it, I know a lot of people don't like the look of the seat hanging out in the air with the full float rear, but I think I can make up a shorty fender that looks decent and doesn't slam the rear wheel on compression.
