I used Mikes spokes when I put the 18" rim on the disc hub. https://www.mikesxs.net/yamaha-xs650-stainless-steel-spoke-set-18-front-36-spoke.html
But I may not be as fussy as @toglhot Well OK I am FOR SURE not that picky about stuff.
Spoke hole angles in the rim will probably have to be dealt with. Most 18" rims have the holes angled for a drum hub with a much larger spoke hole circle.
I used generic Borani knock off rims sourced from Italy. The think the predrilled holes were kind of a compromise between small disk hub and large drum hub angles.
