YZ426F dirtbike question

[oachs83]

I have a 2001 YZF426 that is in need of a front rim. Does anyone know if other years/models of YZ's will fit on this bike? Thanks

yz 400f's yz 250's will interchange for sure they all had same frames just diffent motor's

Thanks, do you know the years were they may start/end?

should be 98-04 up to mabe 06 i think 06 is when aluminum frames came in so like 98-04 for sure i just wouldn't buy stuff off a 125 because i've not had an experience with a yz 125

I know the rim's themselves 01-09 run the same wheels. The hubs, I'm not sure. You can order an aftermarket rim for roughtly $90 or so and just lace it up yourself. If all else fails, ebay. They have all kinds of stuff.

Check out bikebandit's Microfiche' first before ordering and make sure the part numbers are the same.

I checked some part numbers and YZ125-YZ426 all had the same # for rim and hub. I bought a good wheel with tire on ebay from a 2001 YZ125 for $40 free shipping. Now I play the waiting game.
