Swapping Wheels on a GS
I just bought a pair of spoke rims off a '79 GS750. I was wondering if anybody knows if they will fit on my '78 GS550E? Thanks. -

Hey please post results when you try.
I'm going to do the same thing for my brothers bike.
Maybe a picture or two as well?

Yes, they can be made to fit. You will have to get new rear wheel bearings because the 550 used a smaller diameter rear axle.Ed
To measure is to know.
