    1981 GS650E- spoke rim conversion?

    hello, I'm new to the gs forum. This is my first gs motorcycle and I'm wondering if there's a direct replacement for my stock wheels. I would like to have spoke wheels. My bike is chain drive. I'm looking for any information possible. thanks in advance.

    I don't know about the GS 650 but I can tell you that the GS 750 spoke wheels fit the GS 1000 like a glove

      I've been looking over the forum, trying to see if I can find any info. If I am not mistaken because my bike is not shaft driven I could swap with older model gs750s. I would have to use different rear hubs or spacers...or something. I am still trying to learn about this bike.

        Ughhh I'm stuck with Spokes on my 750.

        I liked them at first, until it's time for a tire change.
        I just can't stand installing tubes....

        But whenever Im out cruising at car shows, people always give me a Thumbs Up for rolling on old spokes, lol.

        I guess they are getting harder to find on these old jap bikes?
