Question on ZX6 front wheel?
« on: June 28, 2011, 11:39:08 PM »
Does anyone know if a 94 ZX6 front wheel will fit? I think this is a "E"
I have read that I need a Kawasaki ZX6 D1-D4 (1990-1993) but can't seem to find a "D"
Thanks

No, the E had a larger diameter axle, so the wheel won't work.  You need to wait for a ZX6D wheel like this one:

Hi Gary thanks for the info I was waiting patiently for a reply.
I just wanted to also check if this is a upgrade that most owners are doing.

Thanks again Brad

Sorry it took a while to answer your question, I don't spend much time here anymore, I'm glad it was helpful. 

Based on the number of questions I've answered about the mod, I'd say there are a fair number of people who have done it, though I doubt "most" have done it, more likely just a handful compared to the number of C10's that are out there.  There are fortunately quite a few tire options still available for the stock front wheel, so I'd say most owners will choose to stay with the stock wheel, but it's nice to have the option.  Be patient, I'm sure you'll find a wheel soon enough.

I did the 17" wheel on my 88. Gary was very helpfull in finding what parts fit and even finding parts. I've had it together for about a month. It was a great improvement. Thanks Gary.

Hi Jack did you do anything to the rear wheel? I was thinking that a machine shop could take the hub from the stock bike and make weld it up on a ZX6 rear wheel. Other option just enjoy the bike as it is then buy a C14. Also Gary thanks again  for the info and the link.
