Up to 1975 they used the 6 bolt brake discs (with the large hole in the center) 76 and later used the 4 bolt brake discs (small hole center).
The speedo drive is different also. I put a early 6 bolt wheel on my later 76 900 and I had to machine about 3 mm off the fork side of the speedo drive (to have the wheel centered in the forks). Everything else bolted up (I may have had to make a new wheel spacer for the other side of the front wheel, I dont remember).

+ if it was a straight bolt on what fun would that be,for me 80% of the fun is the strugle to make stuff work that isnt supposed to;) usually when i get it all straight and pretty i sell and start over,the wife says i need help:P :laugh:
