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

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.
