Plan B - does anyone have a Z1100R rear wheel?

[Coose]

Yep, I'm clutching at straws, but does anyone have a Z1100R 2.5" rear wheel kicking about? I was going to fit Astralites to my J but I'm now going to stick with 7-spokes if I can.

Or, does anyone know of another Kawasaki model that uses a 2.5"+ 7-spoke 18" rear wheel? I unfortunately haven't come across anything else....

I believe the 1100B GPZ has a 2.5 by 18 rear and there are some of those on ebay.
Does it have to be 7 spoke. If not, uni wheels are cheap and lighter than standard ones and come in two different patterns. 18 rear from the 750 and 18 front from the 1100.

Hi Al,

I want to stick with 7-spokes, but my newest plan looks like it's about to backfire. I was going to use a Z1300 front, but if I use the 13 discs I don't think it'll fit between the yokes without swapping them for a set from an Ltd or Police. It's never simple!

I keep looking at Unitrack wheels as they're for pence, but I just can't bring myself to do so...

Not J, as that is what mine is...

I think Al could be right about the GPZ-B rear wheel (cheers old chap!), so does anyone have one of those as I can't seem to find any on eSkip...

Was looking at these and a pair of gold ones in Ireland when i wrote that.
Cant see the gold ones now.

I think I have one now - the guy selling the gold pair on eSkip has agreed to sell me the rear only.

Cheers for your help chaps!
