Default Wheels/forks compatability question

I have got my eye on some forks on ebay. I am looking at late k series gsxr and was wondering what wheels will fit these. I am liking the new 5 spoke design as fitted to the new gladioli and wondered if a) this rear wheel will fit the sv rear without modification, and b) if any honda/yamaha 5 spoker will fit gsxr forks.

Almost anything will fit, given the right spacers and bearings.

It's a bit early for Galdys owners to start ripping wheels off dontcha think? I'd lay a good wager they will be a straight swap or just need different bearings for a pointy. Front and back.


If you can find someone who'll admit being a gladys owner to pick their brains, that would be a start.

Nobody on here got one yet then? wonder why.
Just wondered as I'm sure a new gladis back wheel would be cheaper than the 440 pound for a magnesium 5 spoker that I've seen on the interweb. O.Z did them but apparently have stopped making wheels for bikes now.
