I got a 93 gsxr 750 swing arm chillin in my garage waiting to be put on my gs but i was wondering if any of you guys knew what years of gsxr wheels would fit up with my swing arm obviously 93 but 94? the wheels got a different design that year is it just looks or everything.  

Thanks

why not just try and see?  On one hand, it may fit no problems...on the other, it may not and you're only out 45 minutes.

88-95 should fit in the swingarm
get a 750 wheel the 1100 hub width is wider

have fun trying to get the peg brackets to fit
also the ride height set up
also the shock mounted...
also the can mounted....
also the chain lined up....

and you have to have spacers made to shim the pivot axle to the swingarm pivot brgs

and i think it looks like crap when finished....but that is just me

i'm going RG-V 250 braced arm this time....

dont want to sound retarded but why do i need spacers isnt it too big so i have to grind it down to fit the frame?

yeah you got to grind 3/4- 1 inch off of each side
then the swingarm will hit the frame as it pivots....at the back of the foot peg mounts....more grinding
once it will slide into position
the pivot brgs are...20mm I.D.
and the axle is 17mm O.D.
therefore a spacer needs to be made

all sizes are pulled from my butt....check for correct sizes

its going to hit the frame once i have it in there when it pivots or just the foot pegs?

as i remember....yes

a tape measure is your friend
measure the width of the GS arm at the pivot
measure the gsxr....
see a difference?
with a pencil/marker make lines where you need to cut
measure the distance from the pivot to the next narrow part of the frame.... should be back side of where the pegs bolt in

measure the width
then measure the width of the gsxr arm at that point....it's pretty darn close....
also you will have to probably space out!!! the peg assy to clear the swingarm

don't believe me!!!!! seriously!!! go take some rough measurements and see for yourself.... only way we learn

i played this game several years ago
it looked to cobbed for me
others have figured a way to do it.... do some more searching and PM the guilty
