Is there any other 17mm axle drum brake wheels out there 18' 19" 21" ?
can the xs400 wheel bearing be changed to work with a 17mm axle?.

If you can find bearings with the same O.D. and thickness as the XS400 stock bearings but with a 17mm I.D. then sure, you could swap them out. You'll need to find out what's in a 400 wheel stock and then study some bearing charts to see if a 17mm I.D. substitute is available. You would probably also need to replace the spacer tube between the bearings with a larger diameter one too so a 17mm axle would fit through it.
