    GR650 Cant Find Spokes, please help!

    I have a 1993 Suzuki tempter or GR 650 (front: 19?inch rim, rear: 16?inch). I just sent my rims and hubs to get powder coated, in the process I broke one of the spokes that was rusted out, the problem is they don?t seem to make a spokes set for either The front or rear rim anymore. Does anybody know any spokes that would fit from another bike? Would GS750 front wheel spokes fit the front wheel of my GR650? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

        Might be worth also joining a site like dotheton.com with a larger cafe racer component.
        There could be wheel repair guys on that site that would sell smaller amounts of spokes than full sets.

          Gian, if you could take a picture of the need spoke, next to a ruler ( or just measure it) I can see what I have in my stash. The front wheel, probably yes. The rear wheel maybe...
