      I'm trying to figure out how that wheel is supposed to fit.

      The axle sizes don't match, the hub is wider, the stock spacers would not work right because of that, and the rotors are not going to line up with the calipers/hit the forks.

      Unless the PO did alot more than just get the wheel.

      I would suggest you look at replacing the wheel with the stock rim, and sell off the GSXR front wheel.

          Ebay is cheap option ussually for it. Look in combination with the front axle.

          Like this one for example...



          BTW, DomnicProfenno is great to purchase from on ebay. Always have great transactions with him.
