Name that whel in 1!!
 
No prizes for spotting it is a Kawasaki wheel ;) It's a mechanical 'worm gear' speedo drive, so can't be anything too modern?

This isn't a competition as I don't know the answer, just hoping someone in SV land recognises it. I can make a guess, but I wanna know for sure ... the wheel code Enkei F-1301 will hopefully give the game away to someone?? ... I tried a bit of goggle-fu, but to no avail! :scratch:

Na, it is not a GPZ wheel, this takes two discs for a start (GPZ only has 1) ;)

it also has a BT010 wrapped around it - my mates baby GPZ has a 110 section tyre, which is only available in their BT45 "classic" range. Could be one of the early 6s though - early ZX6R or ZZR perhaps?

I think it is an early E model ZZR (not as early as a D model, but the first few rounds of the E model say 92-95?) ... but not sure ... like I said, whoever has a Kwack with a similar looking wheel can check the number stamp and all should become clear?!?! :)

If it helps the disks off it are 298mm in diameter and slightly offset (i.e. in the same sort of way the curvy SV discs are offset) ...

Anyone got a ZZR600?? :)

You're right about early ones, but don't later GPZ500s have two?

That'd be be my guess.

There is a GPZ500 E model that has twin discs. It was around in Europe long before the UK got twin disc models in 2001. A couple of years ago I had a 1996 P regd GPZ500 winter hack that had twin discs as standard - it was a parallel import from Italy.

That wheel looks like it may well have come from a ZZR as the discs on a GPZ don't fit that close to the centre

Can it really be as old as 92-95?
If its a Kawasaki wheel it would have rotted away by now.;)

Can't say fairer than that.
