#1 PostAuthor: mikey » Tue Apr 29, 2008 6:07 pm

My Z1000 is an A2 with cast wheels but every picture or real life A2 ive
ever seen has spoked wheels not that worried about it just wondering if
at some point someone changed the wheels on mine to cast wheels but
they are proper kawasaki wheels says so on the rim :D

Mikey, they originally had spoked wheels, so someone must have changed them at some point.

When the A2 came out cast wheels were an option from Kawasaki .

My A2 had cast wheels from the original dealer, as stated before this was a Kawasaki option. In my opinion an inprovment.
