[SpoogeMCMM]

i just came across this on ebay surfing at work

and i was wondering if they are really this rare, or if its even a good idea. cause i want spoke wheels for my XS but is keeping the disc really a big deal. opinions?

Yes, they kind of are rare, but def none are oem for xs650. That's partly why Omar can price his kit at his price

I think SR500 had an 18" disc rear also but it was a Mag?

The xs650 has a rear disc brake for the rear in mag, too...

Yeah its a rear disc cast mag but only in 16" never 18". For an 18" look at SR500.

Ah you are correct wise man. Didn't think about the 18" to 16" part of that statement. However, the thread was about spoked hubs.

My bad, just noticed that myself.

kopcicle,

Thanks for the info/pic, but do a proper intro.

Well rumor has it that the hub , sprocket carrier and rim are KZ750 . The Sprocket carrier was machined just a little to allow use of a KZ650 cog . The disc is a CB200C part that has had it's outside Dia turned down .200" . The spacers and seals came out of a box of wtf . The sprocket and disc line up but the wheel center is off .250" . Either that or I'd been in the garage well past beer thirty when I trued it .
