wheel ID

[rpeters]

Can someone ID these wheels please...are they J?

[DeadZedDave]

Front wheel looks like z1000ST
Back wheel looks like z1000J (if its a 2.15 rim width - a 2.5 rim is used on some GPz11's and 1000/1100R's - all these have 20mm spindle - if the spindle is 17mm it would be from one of the 750's)
As always, I'm happy to be corrected !

I think the ST front wheel only has 4 disc mounting holes??

[warren3200gt]

Front disc looks right with 7 bolts for a J but J has twin disc.
I will take some pics (when it's not minus kin freezing out there) of the lettering on my front wheel and post pics so you can compare.

Edit, talking bollox.

I actually just saw an ST wheel on ebay with seven bolts (and then another with 4 bolts) so now i am thoroughly confused!...so they both might be J/1100 then?

There is no image on the CSMNL website for ST wheels

Period ST advert. Looks like 7 bolt disc.

“Front wheel looks like z1000ST” never ever saw a J with a wheel like this one but if you try, you can make anything fit anything…..

Cover of a J khi workshop manual. J discs mount directly onto the mag, ST discs mount to a carrier and the carrier mounts to the mag. So does look ST then

Like Warren3200gt says the picture he has posted shows what a J wheel looks like - so if its a J wheel you need, this is what you are looking for !
Should be easy enough to find one.

The J has a disc (or pair of discs) which bolt directly to the wheel hub using seven (7) special hexagon socket head bolts. The disk bolts directly to the wheel hub - i.e. there is no separate carrier.

The wheel you have in your picture has two discs which are permanently riveted to separate aluminium disc carriers and these are then fixed to the wheel with seven (7) hexagon head bolts.

The only other standard wheel I know of which looks similar to yours is a Z1300 one. It has a similar arrangement of 7 bolts / separate disc carriers and riveted on discs BUT THE Z1300 is an 18 inch wheel - yours is a 19 inch.

It looks like you have a Z1000ST front wheel BUT whatever else it might possibly be IT IS NOT a standard 1000J front wheel.

If you need a pair of J mags, I've got a pair I could live without.

Your wheel looks like a Z1000ST - Z1000 J looks heavy duty - bolts further out from axle with nodules around bolt holes

Thanks for the info chaps.....I am not looking for a J wheel, I want to get ride of these two which is why I need to know exactly what they are.
I guess as its now confirmed that they are ST and maybe J rear then they will be going in the skip......
