All the aircooled mag wheels will fit, Although the later ones may need slightly tweeked spacers.
For forks, best just buy forks and yokes together from any of the twin shock models and they should be a straight swap.
If you want to keep your yokes I believe any of the round tank kawas have the same stanchions. Maybe also the MK11 but I'd need to double check that one...they may be slighly larger.

Kawasaki mag wheels will fit but you will need the sprocket mounting that fits into cush drive as spoke and mag are different,
Hope that makes sense

Unless you can get the right size bearings then no, the Z650 uses a 17mm axle. Maybe its 16mm......but it deffo aint 20.
In that case the swingarm wont be the same either.
The 750 Twin uses a 20mm axle at the back and a disc brake, i have wire wheels on mine but im pretty certain some were mag's.
