spoked rims, is there a reference?

[Richharr]

I'm searching, but I think I'm a little retarded.

I want to put spoked rims on my 80 gs450, so what models should I be looking at? is there a list somewhere with sizes? other makes?

My '82 T model has laced wheels. You might check here: http://www.suzukicycles.org/

better yet, is there a dual front disk spoked wheels and a disc rear spoked?

[salty_monk]

I think they all have the bolt holes for the disks on both sides.....

I know the front rim on my 400 is set up for dual disks. Don't know about rears though. Curious myself, as a rear disk would be cooler. If they were available would they fit my bike?(are the axels the same size as the bigger bikes?)

[briyenkieth]

did a bit of digging and the spokes wheels did come with disk rear brakes. Now about axel size. Did Suzuki run the same axel diameter on all GS's? Anyone?

[salty_monk]

No... but I believe the hub is the same size... all you need is the correct bearing set & axle for the bike you're fitting them to.

Don't take that as Gospel but I think I'm right. (At least it is between the 750 & the 1000)

I made the switch on mine, looks infinitely better.

I believe the fronts are fairly universal with no issue on axle size. As mentioned above, the fronts are all drilled for dual disc so you can use single or dual.

The rear was bolt up for me. Depending on size of the bike, this is where you may need to change out bearings to match the axle. 750 & 1000 are the same, not sure about smaller bikes.

so no spoked wheels on modern inverted forks, huh?

[salty_monk]

Nope... but you could put supermoto wheels on something pretty modern.
