Will they fit a 2006 1200GSA?

Thanks

I believe the GSA used the same wheels from 2006 to 2013.

The discs on these sit 2mm, each side, farther apart than the older style discs mounted with dome bolts, wavy washers and bobbins.
They will not run central in your callipers.

Kenny, I'm interested to understand this too.
Can you elaborate on when the difference was introduced (assuming it's a year thing) or is it a model variation?

IIRC, from 2008 on the bobbins were a bit longer and fixed in the discs. To compensate for the discs being about 2mm further away from the centre line the calipers were changed, shifting their own centre lines 2mm further outboard.
You should be fine using the front wheel on an earlier model, so long as you use the discs from an earlier model too.

Thanks for the info, I did wonder about that..

That will be why my wheels work fine. The discs can't be swapped from wheel to wheel, but wheels can be swapped complete with discs.

Now I'm confused. Magwych said I could use the wheel with an earlier disc on my bike, but you're saying the discs can't be swapped?

Not sure if those will fit, but I have a set that will. I bought a set for my GS, but have now bought a GSA so they are surplus to requirements, looking to get back what I paid. PM if interested

You have pm!

I fitted alloys from an early GS to my 13 plate GSA all i did was change over the complete disc set as removed from the wire wheels. No offset problems. So i would imagine the reverse would also be possible without fittment problems.
