New Wheels (Expertise Needed)

Okay an appeal here to all those that can help me. I need a new front wheel and possibly a rear for a 1996 Kawasaki ZRX-400.

Does anyone know what wheels will fit on this bike? Or alternatively where I could get some originals?

I'm finding it very difficult to find them and would appreciate the help.

What's wrong with the origionals?

Rear wheels are cheap and easy to find.
Front wheels aren't so as they tend to get damaged in a crash. Breakers yards and ebay are always good for finding bits.

The front wheel was scraped and very slightly dented in a fight with a wall. I was told by a mechanic that it may not pass MOT so I need to look for a new front wheel.

Ebay doesn't turn anything up at all as these were japanese imports. Spares aren't exactly plentiful so I need to know if there are any other more common wheels that can go in.

I know that they share parts with a lot of other bikes I was just wondering if anyone else knew which ones.

Give a Kawasaki dealer a call and ask which if any wheels are interchangable. They will be able to tell you by looking at the part numbers.

a quick google shows they look similar to the zxr 400 wheels, they probably are the same if you can remove your front wheel and measure your spindle that goes through the wheel i can compare it to my zxr one for you
