    Have a look at the microfisches to see if the part numbers are similar for the hubs

    02 RD07a RWB, Powerbronze tall screen, Remus Grand Prix, TT crash bars, TT pannier frame, Zega style panniers, Alpos top box,TT bar risers, TT headlamp guard, Heated grips, mainstand, Heidenau K60s for road and light offroad, TKC80s for the dirty stuff, Scottoiler, Autocomm, TT Zumo mount, Zumo 550 and most of all A BIG GRIN !!! Oh, and a very nice RD04 HRC coloured Marathon Replica

    When I grow up ..... yeah right!

    Y'see, I could say "You can go fast, I can go anywhere, Africa Twin" But you buggers have 'em as well so it would sound pretty lame .... oops!

    Just took a look at the fisches

    600TA from 97 onwards has twin discs and the 97-99 shares the same wheels entirely as the ATs from 89-99 only the last AT 99-2002 is showing an identical hub assembly but without the in ner axle spacer.

    I have wheels off a 98 AT bike on my 2002 AT with no issues at all

    So on that basis I would expect the 97-99 TA wheel would fit. You'd have to try a later one (650) to see if this worked too

    Hope this helps

    Thanks guys i think it will be easier to get a new rim and have it rebuilt at sfx, i think its the original wheel so 14 years old i guess i cant complain about the cost
