Hey,
I was wondering if anyone out there knows where I can get a couple of spokes for my '74 Buffalo's rear wheel. I've got some broken that need replacement? Are the spokes the same as on a GT550? There's a guy in town that has one of those laying around.
Thanks,
Seeeeeeeyaaaaaa,
Ron

+1 Dave. To replace any spokes, you will need to unlace the wheel. There ain't no other way to get there. So look at replacing the lot.
The GT750 used a slightly larger (.5mm) rear spoke than the GT550. That's why the part numbers are different. Front wheels were all the same part number -- excluding the 72 front drum brake models. All three GT's used the same front spoke from 73 thru 77.

I was born with nothing and still have most of it left.
