    I have a 1983 midnight maxim 750 and a midnight virago 750 of the same year. When I got my maxim the PO spray painted the wheels black. I was wondering if I could do a straight swap of the rims with out any major modifications and what I would need to do to accomplish the task.

    Front wheels same part number
    Rear wheel is different and also is rear brake. I think you may be able to swap it as an assembly.

    all the front axle parts are the same so it is a direct swap
