Will a rear wheel from an '82 GS1100L fit an '82 GS1100GK?

As far as I can tell, they're interchangeable among the 1100s, as they are among the 850s. With a few extra spacers I fit an 850 rear wheel on my 1100G because I had installed a new tire on the 850 wheel and didn't want to go through the work of pulling the new tire from the 850 wheel ,and the old tire off of the 1100 wheel. My 1100G (which is almost identical in every way to the GK) is working just fine with the 850 rim. Tire size is the same, it's the hub width that was wrong.

82 GL fits a 82 GK - same part number.

Thanks! I got a deal on a good condition rear wheel for $25 so I wanted to find out before I jumped on it.

I have an '82 1100G rear wheel on my '83 1100GL and that works too. 17" replacing 16".
