Wheel interchangeability with a 79 750b
02 Jan 2009 09:39
I'm finally working on my old twin, and I noticed the spokes are badly rusted. I wanted to find out about fixing or replacing them, but that was answered in a previous thread. Since redoing the spokes would cost a couple hundred dollars at least, and I prefer the look of a mag wheel in any case, does anyone know what different models can interchange wheels with my bike? There are plenty of bike boneyards around here, so I'd like to look around. It's got discs front and rear. Any ideas?

You might want to quiz some of the people at the salvage yards. They are usually pretty knowledgable about what parts fit where because they do it all day long.

Just to get you started, at a minimum the following will work.
77-80 KZ650 front wheels.
77-80 KZ1000 front and rear wheels
80 KZ750G twin wheels will work, but you need to use the G swingarm and brake pedal since the rear is a drum brake.
If you're really, really, lucky, you might find a NOS Morris Mag kit for the 750 twins, it was a dealer installed option.
