I realize the issue with the dual brakes up front. I'm just curious about all the other nuts and bolts, and if mods have to be made? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

What I'm looking for is if what I have now on my SM is all I need to switch wheels(they are 2007 America wheels). I've got a great guy who I use for the stuff I'm not equipped to do, but I need to have all my ducks in a row. Otherwise, my bike will be torn apart, and put to the back of the line if I'm missing some part for the switch.

You can try to reuse them but it's a better idea to get new ones. It's your butt in the seat if the brakes fail... Just my 2 cents. NR 1982 Pontiac Trans Am...K.I.T.T. in progress.
