Hi guys,
Been a little while since I've been over here on the mini's forums,
I spend most of my time on the 400ex forum.
I've tried searching for some answers, but haven't found what I'm looking for.
I need some help/suggestions, for some of you who are more knowledgeable on the Kymco Mongoose 90.
What I am trying to find out is how to mount larger/wider tires on the Mongoose 90.
I had found some wheele adapters for my daughters TRX90, that allowed me to install the stock wheels from my 400EX. this is nice, because it is 4" wider than stock.
We do not race, and only trail ride the local deserts.
I am interested in possibly doing the same thing, (or similar) with
my sons Kymco 90.
I remember when I was researching it for the honda 90, that someone had said the rear spindles from a Eton Viper 90 could be used on the trx, that had the TRX90 sized splines, and the 400 sized bolt pattern.
I'm wondering if there is something similar to that set up, that would allow for wider wheels to be installed onto the Kymco 90 ?
Or,
Can wider,(and possibly taller too), wheels be purchased to fit the Kymco bolt patterns ?
(I realize that taller rears, will require regearing the final drive chain).
I'm sure somebody here has already done this, and I would greatly appreciate any input, or comments.
Thanks,
Ron
