Is the sprocket carrier on the GSXR750 Slabby wheels the same as the one on the 1100s?

Reggie
 
I guess so.
The sprocket carrier I have fits both the 750 and 1100 wheels I had.
 
Cheers man, although it looks like the front may be scrap- spotted two cracks in  the spoke webs as soon as I unwerapped them.  Am consulting with Keith as to whether they can be saved (suspect not...) >:(

I am sure you can fix those cracks...  I have seen much worse... You would be surprise what the guys can do these days. I mean, if they can do it here in SA then surely someone can do it 10 times better where ever you are... :D

I think the hubs are the same on the wheel side but maybe a bit higher on the other side. (I am not sure about this, but you can play with bush thickness to get the sprockets align.)
 
Early slabby 750s had weak wheels, fixed for next model year

Indeed, but these are off an '85 1100.  Pillocks sent me 750 wheels first, so this is an ongoing PITA.

We shall see what the man in Weegieland sez... :D
 
I have in my mind, that at least the 1100 wheels I've had have 2 bearings in the drive side of the wheel and 750 wheels have only one (nothing to do with cush drive, actual wheel) this might determine  size of spacers etc. Dont quote me, just bear it in mind.

I also threw a 750 wheel I bought because the bearing housing on drive side was shot....see above !
 
Reason I need to know is that I still have the 750 wheels c/with the sprocket carrier.  This was supposed to be taken away today by UPS but the yoyos who sold me the wheels screwed that up too.  GSXRracing in Kent, yer a bunch of boneheads...
 
Reggie, got a set of 11 wheels here if you'd rather not faff about with getting cracks welded...

...and I believe your man from Babylon-on-Clyde may be passing by here some time tomorrow

 
Eh?  Thought they were 750s you had.  Are they 2.75" front and 4.00 rear?  Would be v interested if they are, although I have to sort out my growing wheel mountain here too...

Reggie
 
ah, by some oversight & idiocy I managed to end up with 2 pairs - the 750s were bought at ingliston last year & the 11s have been lurking (forgotten) at the back of my shed for longer than I care to think about.

I've shelved the idea of doing a wheel change on the SFC for the forseeable as there are too many other things with a higher priority. And I need space in the shed.

 
Aha!  Hold those wheels for me!  Do they have the sprocket carrier?  I can't believe I'm going through all this nonsense again.  Bloody Laverdas...

No worries. I did have a sprocket carrier, think it's with the 11 wheels but I'll check tomorrow.

You'll have a PM shortly...
 
Reggie,

The sprocket carrier is the same on both.

The hubs of the 3.50 and 4.00 rears are also physically the same.  Once all is set up, you can swap around as you like (I do!).
