Extra wheels

I have found a blown Husaberg (2001) 550 on the cheap. I am interested in the bike for the wheels and suspenders. Does anyone know if the the wheels would bolt on a 990 adv?

I would have thought not without a lot of work and a heavily modified spindle also.
Single front brake disk for a start.The rear rim will be a bit narrow and therefore perhaps not as strong....same with spokes?

Put quite simply,i wouldn't go through the work to make them fit unless i was an engineer and had access to milling machines and materials etc and was also confident the spokes and rims would handle all the extra weight.

Not a chance...

But the 550's easy to fix. Get her running again with help from www.husaberg.org
