  1. Good evening everyone. I just found this site when I was searching a question, and I hate to ask right off the bat but I need help. About a month and a half ago I picked up an ‘81 GS850 GL that had previously been used for parts. Now I’ve got an ‘82 parts bike and GSX-R forks i picked up to avoid the need to rebuild front forks and calipers, not to mention the added looks and added handling benefits. This is my first build but I wouldn’t say that I’m in over my head, just short on time and money so things are moving along slowly as parts arrive. Right now my biggest focus is getting a title so I’ve put a hold on things until then, but thats all beside the point. Now that I’ve given a brief introduction of my bike and myself, I have a question. Someone on a Facebook group recently mentioned to me that a VX800 rear wheel will bolt right up to a GS850. Is this true? If so which caliper should I use? I thought the 5 point design would look cool with the 3 point look of the GSX-R wheel up front. Then both wheels would be 17” but im not sure if that would cause any issues. Lastly, what would be a good tire size and psi to run front and rear witb the wheels mentioned? Sorry if this is a stupid question, if you’ve read this far thank you and I look forward to learning in this group.
