79 GS550L wheels

[25thHour]

Hey everyone I am new to the forums and havent had any luck searching for my the answer to my question. I would like to put spoke wheels on my bike instead of the mag ones. Is that possible? If so what do I need to look for and do?

Thanks Ian

First of all,

Many of the earlier bikes or possibly a T variation had spoke wheels.

Should be an easy change, just watch the spacers.

Some of the GS550s had rear drum brakes (all 77-78? 79? and 82 L's maybe?) and some had discs. Also some had dual calipers up front and some had singles. Probably want to match those with your current setup...
