21" front?

[gonewithwind]

Looking at a bike that has a 19" front wheel with drum brake. I want a 21" front wheel, but want to keep the drum.

So my question is, can I just get a new 21" rim and lace it with 21" spokes to the drum hub?, how do you know if it will fit or not fit?

any help much appreciated?

http://www.buchananspokes.net/ can make you a spoke kit to lace the stock hub to a 21". You can also buy the rim from them.

I believe it has been done many times and often to non Yamaha rims with stock rims. There is a 21" front wheel thread on here, if you run a search.
