Does the L7+ GSXR1000 front wheel swap to K9-L6?

    I am mainly asking a rotor spacing question. Do the L7+ and pre L7 bikes have the same rotor spacing (distance from one rotor to the other)?
    That would simplify a swap I wanted to explore greatly.

    I found this chart which has been very helpful.

    Based on the chart, the internal spacer, bearing widths and the lateral spacer are all the same, the hubs should be identical dimensionally (?)
    I think now I just need to know if the rotor spacing laterally is the same...
    I did a search on the two main GSXR sites (so painful) and this site. The question has been asked several times but no answers I could find.

    Is there a racer here that has done the swap and know if it fits or what is missing? Much appreciated. Thanks

    TWF2 2 heads are better than 1

    K1 to K7 have 132mm for rotors, c to c.

    2011 + gsxr600/750 I measured 133mm so I assume probably the same 132mm
    Thanks!!! I suppose the wheel hub mounting face distance would be the easiest to measure accurately.

    Found a 2018 1000r for sale at a local dealer. Disc spacing exactly 132mm...
    These wheels should be all be compatible... direction of axle installation my differ.
