Name that whel in 1!! - SV650.org

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!

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.
