What wheels are compatable with an 05 GSXR 600 with no modifications?

Which are compatable with just new spacers?

I want to use the existing brake setup on on my bike and mount up a spare set of rims with studded tires.

2001 and up will work. But if you get a 6 inch rear wheel you will need the proper spacer to go with it. The fronts are all the same.

Are all the rotors orpm 01 and up compatable with the brake setup on the 05?

No the 04-05 600 and 750 have 298mm rotors where the 03 and down have 320mm rotors. I put an 04 frontend on an 02 600 and we had to make spacers for the calipers to accept the 320mm rotors. So you can use the old rotors on the new radial mount forks but you'd have to machine up 4 spacers for it to fit.

You can see the silver spacers in this pic between the black fork bottoms and gold calipers. Thats an 02 600 with an 04 front end 02 front wheel, spacers, and rotors............and my top secret 04 motor swap

Thats exactly what I wanted to know. Thank for the input!

No problem the spacers are simple to machine or have made, you could even use stacked washers if you wanted to be ghetto........

Anyone know of problems with the rear rim/rotors. I am assuming that they are all the same from 01 on.

They are the same from 01 and up. Rotors and wheels. Except the 1000 has the 6 inch rim.
