    Came across this Vid on YT the other day..

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6Z8dW0w2qA

    Had a trawl through many pages on here and the net in general but cant find any info, So has anyone ever done this Mod (apart from this French guy) Front end should be pretty simple, Rear end probably not so simple, But from the Vid the Diff housing looks like the 900F and not the Diversion due to the Yamaha name moulding on the Diff housing...

    Any thought....

    It says in the "comments" that they are "Diversion" rims.

    It's also not a "31A" bike - the 900 we (USA) got - - it has no anti-dive and has "tube" handlebars.

    It also has killer brakes and four pot calipers, with a plate adapter.
    custom signals, clean paint job, and rear fender delete.

    The owner has changed the entire front end for the Divvy one,
    I'm just not sure what he's done to the Diff or the swinger,
    wether the divvy wheel goes straight on the 900f diff and what adjustments have been made if any,
    It just looks very nice with the old school look and the modern running gear...

    It is the 900 S diversion wheel year 1995-20xx. I got one from Germany & it fit to my XJ750 differential. I believe all the XJ's differentials are the same. I have a Virago diff for my mono-shock setup. Check my build to see how it fits.

    My only concern is the 900S wheel is wider than the 900F, that french guy got he wheel in but did he mod the 900S swinger to fit the 900F frame and twin shocks, Who knows, Still either way it's done it looks good..

    The wheel fits. I was able to squeeze a 150/70R17 tire in between a '82 xj750 swingarm with a xv920 upper mono-shock swingarm mount. It does have a slight offset. I had to remove the differential to fit the tire in. There is clearance with no rubbing.

    And the XJ750F is exactly the same as the XJ900F Cept the Engine capacity..

    That looks like sweet Project you've got going on there...

    I have not actually measured it out, but it can't be more than .25" or less.
