I think you may need to swap wheel bearings, can't remember the axle size on the 750. I have 1000 wheels on my 550, the wheels are identical other than bearing ID, and the fact that the 1000 wire spoked wheels use an alloy rim, while the 750 and 550 use a chromed steel rim. Both have threaded holes for the second brake disc.
The cast wheels use the same wheel except for the bearing size.
