Its more trouble that its worth. The hub width is wider on the 12R wheel than the ZX14. You would have to machine the wheel, where the rotors bolt to. Then the rotor offset is different, and bearings. More trouble than its worth. My friend put a set of ZX14 forks on ZRX with ZX12R wheels and it was a total PITA to get it to fit, and its still not an optimum set up.

go with 10r wheels. the 14 wheels are heavier than the 12r wheels, with the 10r having the lightest stock setup

I like the look of the zx14 wheels better than stock 12s. Limited income makes me
shy away from aftermarket..........I would like to see some detailed info on a wheel swap
zx10 or zx12..........but Im on an 05 ...radial front .....differs from other 12s

anything is possible with the correct spacers
one guy went with the complete 10r suspension on his 12r. i have seen pics of a grudge bike with a 636 front end(lighter)...

Well Dan here is a read for what its worth , although it is the opposite of what you asked, perhaps it may lead to some clarity as to what it will require
