I decided to make this since I had a rough time finding this info.
Initial differences:
01-02 uses 320mm front rotors (same as the 99-07 Hayabusa) and a 220mm rear rotor.
03-04 uses 300mm front rotors and a 220mm rear rotor.
05-08 uses 310mm front rotors (same as the 08-09 Hayabusa) and a 220mm rear rotor.
The 05-08 wheels are lighter than 01-04 wheels and they have thinner spokes. I dont have exact weights for the wheels but I held an 06 front wheel in one hand and an 04 front wheel in the other and I didnt really notice anything. I did this swap on my 06 because I think the 01-04 wheels look better.
01-02 Front Wheel
Will fit 01-08 1000. Use brake rotor bolts from donor wheel. Use axle and spacer(s) from your bike.
03-04 owners use stock brake rotors and calipers. If 01-02 rotors are to be used with stock calipers a 10mm caliper spacer is needed or 05-08 calipers with a 5mm spacer. You could also use 03-07 SV1000(S) rotors which are 310mm. You would need to use 5mm spacers.
05-08 owners will need 03-07 SV1000(S) rotors which are 310mm and require no modifications, 01-02 rotors with 5mm caliper spacer, or 03-04 rotors with 03-04 calipers. 03-04 rotors are 10mm smaller so this is a downgrade from stock. If you are using 03-04 calipers with 01-02 rotors you will need a 10mm spacer or a 5mm spacer with 03-07 SV1000(S) rotors.
03-04 Front Wheel
Will fit 01-08 1000. Use brake rotor bolts from donor wheel. Use axle and spacer(s) from your bike.
01-02 owners use stock brake rotors and calipers. 03-04 rotors will NOT work since they are 20mm smaller than stock 01-02 rotors.
05-08 owners will need 03-07 SV1000(S) rotors which are 310mm and require no modifications, 01-02 rotors with 5mm caliper spacer, or 03-04 rotors with 03-04 calipers. 03-04 rotors are 10mm smaller so this is a downgrade from stock. If you are using 03-04 calipers with 01-02 rotors you will need a 10mm spacer or a 5mm spacer with 03-07 SV1000(S) rotors.
01-04 Rear Wheel
Will fit 01-08 1000. Use rotor bolts from donor wheel. Use axle, brake rotor, and chain side spacer from your bike or the donor bike, they are the same. 03-08 owners use your sprocket carrier, 01-02 owners use your sprocket carrier* You will also need to use your brake side spacer, caliper, and caliper bracket.
05-08 Front Wheel
Will fit 03-08 1000. Use brake rotor bolts and rotors from donor bike. Use axle and spacer(s) from your bike.
03-04 owners will need to use stock calipers with a 5mm spacer or 05-08 calipers with no spacer since the 05-08 rotors are 10mm larger.
01-02 owners will not be able to use these wheels with stock forks since the rotors are smaller and the 01-02 rotors will not fit the wheel.
05-08 Rear Wheel
Will fit 01-08 1000. Use rotor bolts from donor wheel. Use axle, brake rotor, and chain side spacer from your bike or the donor bike, they are the same. 03-08 owners use 03-08 sprocket carrier, 01-02 owners use your stock sprocket carrier* You will also need to use your brake side spacer, caliper, and caliper bracket.
*01-02 sprocket carrier is a different part number than the 03-08 carrier but it will fit in the wheel. If an 01-02 carrier is known to work on an 03-08 bike let me know and I'll edit the post.
Here is a pic of an 04 front wheel on my 06 with 99-07 Hayabusa rotors and 5mm spacers.
I gathered all of this info from GDC, the Ron Ayers Fiche Desktop, and my own experiences . If anything is wrong please feel free to correct me.
Wow, do you need a job ? This is some serious amount of data gatehring..
If you ever need more info on sizes, spacing, and anything with rotors, please let me know...... But for the looks of it you are doing quite well all on your own.

Thanks, I wasnt sure. I read something that said the 01-02's had a larger rotor but it was only the 1000s that had it, 600's and 750's didnt. I'll update the post!
Regarding putting BST's from an '01 onto an '05/'06: I did just that and found that I needed an additional 2mm washer as an axle spacer on the right side (when sitting on bike), sourced from Ace Hdwr. This, after R&R the wheel about a dozen times to find the center. This was later confirmed by Computech check (unrelated to the instalation). Additionally, when spacing the caliper out 5mm, the locating inner sleve needs to be 5mm longer, too.
I believe that BST has incorporated this change to their '05/'06 wheel spacers.

This, after a dozen R&R to determine the center. This was later confirmed by Computrac (unrelated to the install). I believe BST now uses these measurements on their '05/'06 wheels.
Also, besides the 5mm washer to space out the caliper, you need a 5mm longer sleve that locates the caliper. Some people get longer bolts also, but I didn't.

That makes sense because the right side spacer is a different part number from 01-02 to 03-08. I dont know if the BST wheels use stock spacers but if they do you could've used the spacer from the 05-06 bike to make it right. If you did use the 05-06 spacer then Im guessing its the wheel that caused the issue.
wheel should have same spacers
rotor has same offset (zero) and is a 310
but the carrier looks like a 6 bolt instead of a 5 bolt. the 08-09 600/750 has a 6 bolt carrier, but you can get an 06-07 front wheel to work if you use 06-07 rotors
i'm only 90% sure. i know the 06-07 wheel+rotor combo could be mounted to the 08-09 and the K9 has a very similar looking setup. I haven't actually tried it though, so take it with a grain of salt

I have just bought a GSXR 1000 K5 , whilst cold bike seems ok but once warm its difficult to pull off quick as you get a quick grind noise them bike jumps forward and sometimes stalls, if pulling off gently its fine and no problems at all , i put into a local bike chap who said he took clutch...
08 1k gixxer, found the #5 pin to remove the FI light from coming on for the exhaust valve actuator, at least I think its the right one? sitting on the bike its the right hand plug in??
anyway, how in hell do ya remove the pin from the big plug in??
I stumped..
thanks
Hi all,
I've been away for a decade and then some, but I'm back and looking into a new 2018 1k.
I'm seeing deals on MC Trader that seem hard to believe- $12= 15k for a new 2018???
Can someone please tell me if/ what the scam is before I invest time dealing with salespeople?
Thanks in...
