Stock 80' special II Rim size??

[ericmu17]

I was wondering what size my spoke rims are for my Xs650 special II?

16 X 2.75 rear, 19 X 1.85 front.

Spoked wheels are, front, 1.85-19, rear, 2.75-16, mags are 1.85-19 and MT3.00-16.
That's right from the factory repair manual.

Thank you very much!

Both 36 spoke?

For 1980, yes. The Heritage wheels with the extra spokes didn't come along until 1982.

In the interest of not starting a new thread...

Could someone post the sizes for the 1982 heritage wheels while we are at it? Is it just the spokes that changed, or are the wheel sizes actually different as well?
Thanks!

thanks for the link, that's helpful. Looks like the rim sizes on the 82 are the same: 1.85-19, and 2.75-16.

That site is wonderful for looking up parts and cross-referencing them. Very easy to navigate through. I've never actually ever bought anything from them but I use the site often for parts research.
