Hi, Tim,
It is the same part number. Therefore, it will fit.

Sorry if this is a dumb question but if it's the same part # how can it hold wider rubber?

Thanks Phil. I must be getting confused (old age). So is it the K11 RS wheel that's wider then?

The R1100RT wheel is the same as the K1100RS wheel - wider than a K1100LT wheel.

Hi, Tim,
STOP!!! I WAS WRONG!!! I looked at your first post and, although it said "K1100LTSE", I read K1100RS. The RS wheel is the same as the R11RS/RT; the LT rear wheel is the same as the K75 3-spoke wheels. Mea Culpa!

So, what hoops did you jump thru to get one to fit your LT, Drake?

Awe, man. It was sheer hell. First I had to remove five lug bolts and remove the LT rear wheel. Then I had to put the RS wheel on and put the lug bolts back in. You'll have to pull your exhaust though. There isn't room for the tire to fit in there between the rear rotor ABS ring and the exhaust. I've got a Staintune so it's two bolts to remove the can.
The ABS brain is cool with it. About 2k on the LT since siwtching and no faults. I did the math ahead of time and the circumference difference in the tire sizes in about 1%. You might get more than that running different brands front and rear. I'm running PR2s fornt and rear now and lovin' it! (I've done some test "lock-ups" of the rear too and ABS seems fine with those.)

Tim,
I've got a good K1100RS wheel with a 160 Macadam 90X tyre on it.
Yours for the £50 I paid for it in August.

Sounds rugged! I'll have to keep my eyes out for one.

O.K., what's up with the quote thingy? Operator error? I'll try again.

See if this works. Yep, operator error.
