Hey:

CBR600F2/F3 are 6 spoke and have smaller dia axles, but the RC 51 sp1 are the same dia axles as the 929/954 and are 6 spoke like the

I'm not sure about the rear wheel but I know the axle is 25mm on the SP1.

The front axle, however, is smaller. The rim can be modified to fit but will need opening out to take the larger collar (tube in between bearings) for the 25mm front axle on the 929/954. Luckily the bearing outer diameter is the same so 929/954 bearings can be used. You may need to make up new spacers (I don't know why but at least 4 people I know who have done this had to) but it's worth the effort as the 6 spokes look great. SP1's also came with 5 spoke wheels if you want to be different! 929/954 rotors bolt on fine too.

Hey:

Also CBR600 F2 rear wheels are only 4.5 " wide, F3 5.0", and 900RR is 5.5". The 929/954/1000RR and both RC51 sp1 and sp2 are 6.0" wide on the rear with 25mm axles front and rear. The sp2 RC51 5 spoke wheels are also very light about 3 lbs less than the 6 spoke wheels.
