Rear wheel

[Niels B]

Anyone know what yamaha this rear wheel is from ? Got it with a lot of xs650 parts and bikes 1975 and 1978 models. The spoke pattern does not look like any of my other ‘75 &’78 models
Rim is 16” so guess special, however thought they came with a disc.

Heritage Special, I think. 1983?

I have a 36 spoke hub/brake from an 81 special II for the freight. Spokes too.
