Can Front Wheel Install Either Way KZ750?

Question: can I simply remove the front wheel, dis brake rotors and all; and just swap it around 180 degrees sideways and bolt it right back on so the tire spins forward?
Or will the wheel only go on in one orientation.... making me have to take the wheel to a shop and have them un-mount the tire and re-mount it the right way...
A couple snapshots of the wheel, one from left side, the other from the right.
Thanks for any smarts.

That would not work on mine. Does yours have the speedo drive on the left side?rustbuckett wrote:

That would make the speedo cable turn backwards.

I don't know why the photos didn't upload.... I'll try one more time, just the left front side.
