Ive done it with a 95 blade wheel I imagine it would be the same as a 98 but someone else might confirm that. It is NOT a straight bolt up. The hub had to be machined down and I had to play with spacers a bit. Sprockets will fit each other but the sprocket carrier is slightly wider

I did it to fit 180 tyres on. In the end I went back to the old wheel anyway as there isnt much space between the wheel and the chain and on high lean angles it still rubs a little. It was for track use only and I tended to only use it on tracks with high speed sweepers. For tight tracks I was happier with the original wheel.

In fact Id sell you mine if postage wouldnt be such a killer
