Does anyone know offhand if a rear wire wheel w/ disc from a late 70s KZ1000 will fit my 78 KZ650 C2. I'm looking at this one on eBay (and equivalents):

The KZ1000 has a 20 mm rear axle, while the 650's up through at least 1980 have a 17-18 mm rear axle. The front wheel of a 76-80 750 twin and a 77-80 KZ1000 will work on the 650, but not the rear.
You can look at the wheel bearing chart in the filebase to see which models use the same rear wheel bearings.

Check your PM. I have a rear spoke but with drum brakes. Will help if possible.

Thanks for the tip; I'll take a look at the wheel bearings list.
