THANKS ROSS IT DOES AND TO OTHERS WHO EMAILED;
OUT OF CURIOSITY WOULD THE 2.15 X 18 REAR SIZE BE OFF EARLIER Z1000 MK 2'S OR MAYBE Z650'S?? I KNOW VIA "LONDON CALLING" THAT THE 2.5 FITS 1000J3 AND GPZ 1100

J1 has the 2.15 X 18 rear rim that looks the same as the 2.50 GPZ B one. J2 possibly also and i bet others as well. How many bolts on the discs?
