Do you know what the hub off set dimensions are on the front and rear wheels I purchased new rims and spokes and never measured to hub off sets on the original wheels before disassembly
Not all motorcycles use a wheel offset, particularly vintage Japanese motorcycles. I don't believe the TS50 had a wheel offset, I didn't lace my project with any offset and it looks and rides fine.
I got the shocks off eBay, though it was some time ago and I don't have the details available anymore. Measure the mounting hole spacing of your current shocks and an eBay search looking for a similar size and appearing shocks. That's what I did.
What a Great Job you did!! Like I said, before - Museum Quality!
Thank you for the kind words!
Congrats...I just fished my kz650 build. Thanks again for that series.
Thank you, and you're most welcome.
Looks/sounds great! Thanks for ongoing wisdom on YL1.
You're welcome and thanks for the comments...
The TS50 turned out great. I had one just like it in 1975, although mine never looked that good. I still love the sound of that engine. 👍
Thanks for the comments...
I’m wish I knew where to find one!

Hi Please could you let me know the brand and item number of the replacement rear shocks you fitted and where did you purchase them please
