Rim swapping
What year GSXR wheels are a direct swap? 18" on both ends I believe? I'm running spokes wheels, need one rim to make it look better. With the prices I am seeing on spoked wheels Im wondering if I could trade someone for spokes? Or buy some out right.Current Rides: 82 GS1100E, 00 Triumph 955 Speed Triple:twistedevil:, 03 Kawasaki ZRX1200, 01 Honda GL1800, '15 Kawasaki 1000 Versys
Past Rides: 72 Honda SL-125, Kawasaki KE-175, 77 GS750 with total yosh stage 1 kit, 79 GS1000s, 80 GS1000S, 82 GS750e,82 GS1000S, 84 VF500f, 86 FZR600, 95 Triumph Sprint 900,96 Triumph Sprint, 97 Triumph Sprint, 01 Kawasaki ZRX1200, 07 Triumph Tiger 1050, 01 Yam YFZ250F

First generation GSXR use 15mm front axle and 20mm rear axle, same as a GS ,at least a 1000.With a gs1100 aluminium swingarm you can fit a up to a 5.5 rear wheel.
You will need an offset front sprocket, look for a kawasaki KZ splines, same as suzuki spline but easier to find and cheaper.

If first generation GSXR wheels fit GS1000 axel's, how about brake disc's, calipers?Current Rides: 82 GS1100E, 00 Triumph 955 Speed Triple:twistedevil:, 03 Kawasaki ZRX1200, 01 Honda GL1800, '15 Kawasaki 1000 Versys
