This is as close to plug and play as you will get to installing a 17" rear wheel.
1- you will need a Mean Streak wheel from a Vulcan 1500 or 1600
2- you will need a front rotor from a Vulcan Nomad year 99/04
3- you will need a longer axle spacer Moma Kaw pn 92027-1752 shortened to 28.5 mm.
Photo 1- shows the existing rear wheel before the modifications.
Photo 2- shows the existing caliper bracket.
Photo 3- shows the existing bracket after it is modified.
Photo 4- shows the new rear wheel bolted in place with the brake assembly reinstalled, and ready to ride.
If you look close at photo no. 2, you will see the caliper bracket is wider at the bottom than it is at the top. You will need to grind off the inside bottom face as shown approximately 8 mm +/_ .
You will need to shorten the axle spacer to 28.5 mm +/_.
You will need to reassemble the rear wheel on the punkin. Loosen the front bolt that holds the brake compression rod, lift it up out of the way, and reinstall the spacer and brake caliper plate along with the spindle bolt "axle". After you have the wheel on and snugged up, reinstall the brakes and compression arm, recheck that you have every thing tight, and the wheel turns freely and the brakes work.
