Will check swirl  but think rear wheel is 4.5 so not sure it will fit would be nice if they did as not lot choice  vx or intruder,  but try getting a twin disc  front wheel to match  and your 1100g front  fit nice

Mmmm that's weird, I have one in my gs850/1000g years back I know it was a bit of a wiggle.

You had to remove the hub, then put the wheel in by sliding it in from the l/h side (from the rear) with the hub still off then put the spinel in place without the spacer (r/h side) and rear brake mount.

Then twist the wheel sideways with the spinel in place (so the front part of the wheel is twisted over to the left and the rear over to the right) locat the hub on the wheel and bolt up the hub onto the swing arm.

Then remove the spinel and place the spacer and rear brake hanger, replace the spinel and bolt up I had apx 5mm between the tyre and swing arm.

Just to make shore it the gsx1100g 4.5" rear wheel with a 160 tyre.

I like it Mick. Had a similar looking 850 back in the day, late 80s. It had flatbars and a GPZ handlebar fairing and I called it a 'Streetfighter', I'd keep the skinny wheels. Hard tails are fun.:pimp:
