Wheel conversion

22 Feb 2007 17:02

I posted this question earlier but only got some crazy answers so here we go again:
I have a 1978 KZ1000 that came stock with wire spoke wheels (19" front and 18" rear). I want to replace them with stock KZ aluminum (mag) seven spoke wheels (18" front and 16" rear). How easy is this swap? What obstacles if any should I expect and what year bike wheels will fit easiest?
thanks to all...
