different part numbers so not the same but i'm sure they are interchangeable, just need to swap the discs.

not quite, the spacer is the same, but sits deeper into the wheel making the overall width between the fork bottoms narrower, you might be able to use a larger spacer, but i've a feeling the discs wouldn't be centred correctly. (L wheel into H forks works if you cut the spacer down though)

This is getting annoying now. Parts are taking forever, I can't find a front wheel and can't find a fairing. The bike looks very sorry for itself. Only saving grace is the weathers toad. I think id be swinging from a rope if it was 25 degrees.

if all you're after to get back out there is a wheel, I've got one, but its the dark metallic grey (off the black/pink/purple bikes) so wont match your bike, its also been dinged and has about 3mm runout, but you cant tell once its fitted and its got new wheel bearings in it. Currently fitted with a legal D207-GP, ive used it on a few bikes including my 600 and it doesnt shake about even at 150mph +
PM me if its any good to you.
as for the fairing, just get cheapy GRP lowers and spray them up, then keep looking for a mint OE one.

How much for the wheel? I'm not bothered about the tyre as i'll be getting a supercorsa on the front.
