Older Katana rear wheels match the GS front wheel. You can replace the GS front wheel with the newer Katana front if you use a newer Katana rear.

Try searching for "Katana front wheel" on the forum...this is the third result:

close but maybe i should have been more specific.

Im going to add a 98+ Kat straight spoked rear rim for use of a wider tire. Thus i want a 98+ matching Kat front rim

However, in the link and in post 4 says it will work so thanks

Close ?  :cookoo:

I told you the older Katana wheel matches your GS500 front, and you can put the newer Katana front wheel on to match the newer Katana rear wheel if you want, plus a link to a thread that confirmed this so you could be more certain that what I was telling you was indeed correct.

How much CLOSER do you need  :dunno_black:

LOL...... OK. Maybe I missed something when i read it the first time. Either way, thanks.
