Thanks GMC. very helpfull!

I wonder why it is that the front hubs are the same, but the rims are different ?
I might get one (if its cheap enough) and see how it goes.

Yeah, you find a few oddities in parts like that.
They even appear to be the same width.

Might have been some left over works parts ;D

Just thinking about those models
The different part No.s might be becuase one of those years was gold anodised

Zedder strikes again...

The 83 models had thirty six normal spokes.
84 model YZs had the infamous Z-spokes with 32-hole rims - Zedder has the two years of YZ250 swapped around.

FWIW, the 23X front hub is operationally identical to the earlier conical hubs (322, 1K7, 2A6 types) - all four types take the same bearings, spacers, brake plates/shoes and spokes.
