zx-14 front wheel

Is the front wheel for an 'an 08 the same as an '06,'07? Lookin' for a front wheel. I don't need the rotors. Thanks for the help.

yes... or if you'd like to go for a lighter option I believe that the zx6 wheel fits as well... there's someone on here that has one on theirs and it looks good.

I heard that the 07/09 zx6/zx10 is a straight swap and 3.5 lbs lighter !

I can sell you mine, I switched to BST recently.
It is a direct bolt on. BST sells their zx14 front under the
same part # as the 08-09 zx10 and 07-09 zx6.
There are guys on the other forums that use the zx14 front
on the smaller bikes too.

Here it is on the bike last fall

Ok, so is that a zx-6 wheel? If I can upgrade a little while I'm taking care of this I'd like to do that. Is the zx10/zx6 wheel compatible to the point of using the same axle/bearing and spacers? If this all bolts right up, with my standard rotors?, then I'm interested. How much? Thanks

The axle size is the same.
The rotors are a direct swap- no extra spacers and such
as the zx10 guys do to use the zx14 Nissin front calipers.

This pic shows the bolt on of the zx14 rotors on the zx10 rim

zx14 wheels

Do you know of a direct bolt on replacement for the zx14 rear wheel other than aftermarket?

ZX-12R...it is lighter. Between wheel and rotor, about 2lbs. lighter...

I only know of the hurdles involved in using a gsxr 1000 rear wheel

These are my two rears- oem and bst




Here's the gsxr bst with a Tokico brake caliper, a 220mm gsxr Galfer rotor
on a 28mm Mcintosh axle with a custom 12" Spiegler brake line.




You can look up Shane's and Dubious' build threads regarding the swap.

It's not easy and it's not inexpensive.

zx14 wheels

Thanks. I will try to find a good deal on a ZX10/6 front and maybe get lucky on an aftermarket used rear wheel as I am on a serious budget with a seven year old racing motocross along with my need for speed. I am in need of an Adams arm if you know someone that wants to get rid of one. I want the adjustable 8-12 over with bottle bracket.

I read on here that the zx12r is 2 lbs lighter but not sure if it is a straight swap .
Anyone know??? My wife shot the BST idea. So it would be good to know the cheaper alternatives.
