In effect it is like having a large disc, IE more leverage from the disc to the wheel. |

How about a stock looking 18" steel chrome rim? I know it's heavier but would like to not replace both rims and want the front to match the rear. Must be a OEM Kawasaki one that works somewhere. |

The shorter (ex. '72) swingarm works in the H2B frame. I've been running one for years. |

KH 400/250 wheel is an easy fit (hub is the same as a KH 500) plus you can bolt a Z650 drilled disc (C3 model was the 1st to have this disc fitted) straight onto the hub Gary T |
