fitting 17" rear wheel to FZR400 3EN1 model

Anyone out there who can give me some insight into what 17" rear wheel i can fit to my bike? What would be involved in fitting the rear wheel off a rr or rrsp model? Would the FZR600 rear wheel fit.
The bike is for racing in the formula 400 class.

Also, does anyone know what is involved in fitting the front forks off a 400 rrsp on to a 3EN1 model. Is there any other adjustable forks i could fit to the bike with out too many problems?

Reason i want to change to a 17" rear wheel is purely down to tyre choices available.
Hope someone can shed some technical insight.
Thanks,
David.

Your probably better off fitting the TJ swingarm as well as the wheel and the same would go for the front end. Kawasaki ZXR400 are adjustable and upside down. These were fitted to a 3en1 by a member but I think the bike was sold. I'm not sure if the tripple clamps where changed or if the steering stem was put into the oringinal ZXR ones. try NK Racing for yokes http://www.nkracing.co.uk/nkr.html

Thanks Eviil, I'll keep my eyes out for 3TJ parts to convert the bike and visit the site you suggested.
Cheers
