Hi, I bought a job-lot of zxr 400 parts the other day including a front and rear rim and I'm not sure if they're L model rims or H model rims.
Can anyone tell me a way of telling the difference between the models.
Thanks
How can I tell the difference between L and H model rims?

I have a suspicion that the fronts might be the same (not certain though!) but on the rears its easy - the cush drive on the H is massive compared to the L.

The rear is a H model then, i thought it looked rather big, i just couldn't be bothered to take my wheel off to compare it
cheers for the info.

Re: How can I tell the difference between L and H model rims
fronts are not the same, spacers are different as the fork bottoms are different and the non-speedo side bearing is recessed a different amount
also H1 and H2 rears differ, the H2 shares the cush drive with the L but again as with fronts the spacers are different
H1 also has a smaller diameter axle

I'll pop my l wheel out the bike and try the front one to determine that then.zimm wrote:fronts are not the same, spacers are different as the fork bottoms are different and the non-speedo side bearing is recessed a different amount

Re: How can I tell the difference between L and H model rims
I forgot about the smaller rear axle on the H1 as well! Gave me a bit of grief as I did the H1 - H2 conversion on my race bike! Ended up going all the way to ER6 wheels instead.
