GSXR/Suzi front wheel question.

[TurboKat]

Any of you Gixer/Suzuki gurus know if there's such a thing as a 17 X 3.5" 3 spoke front wheel that has the later (SRAD, TL, Busa, etc) style straight spokes but has the smaller disc mounting PCD of the earlier swept spoke or even the slabby (smaller again) PCD?
Suzuki used various incarnations of the 3 spoke wheels in everything from GS 500s & RGVs to RF 6 & 900s, Bandits, etc, so I'm hoping there was a crossover model or something.

Bandit 12 has straight spokes and the discs will fit off earlier models

No

The Bandit wheels won't fit the GSX-Rs. Smaller hub and the discs have recessed carriers not flat ones.

anything slabby is unique to slabby, check out oldskoolsuzuki wealth of knowledge over there

just machine down the spigot on the rim to suit the slabbie disc then elongate holes outwards 4mm and they will fit.

That's the first thing I thought of Rexie but by the time I elongate the holes far enough, there'll be no material to bolt them to.

That's exactly what I need, smaller hub means smaller PCD & the early discs I'm adapting have dished carriers so that's it!
