1978 kz1000a wheel swap

I have a 1978 kz1000a that I am rebuilding. I am in the process of changing over from spokes to mags. I got the back wheel swamped over but the front is a different story. I can't figure out the hub for speedometer gear connection the mag wheel and the spoke are different also the cap that goes over gear. Any ideas? Can I upload photo's to show what I am talking about? Thanks

If it is a similar vintage mag wheel it should be a direct swap. In a few situations if it's a 1980 wheel you might have to change bearings. I did it on mine.
