16 inch on gs

[dcil]

wanting to change the rear wheel on my 82 gs750 to a 16 inch. did any gs use one that might fit? or other suggestion of a donor.

Hi,

The rear wheel from an '80-'81 GS750L might fit. You may have to change sprockets to get the gear ratios to your liking. The '80-'82 GS750E is 15/41 and the '80-'81 GS750L is 15/40.


Thank you for your indulgence,

I have a 16 inch rim from an 80 GS1100LT.

1100 is a shafty isn't it?

Chef's isn't... it's a rare chain drive 16v 1100L.
