In desperate need of a rear wheel by this weekend for my RM. Not having much luck on ebay for my particular year and model so I was wondering what other years and possibly even models, that will mount to my 2002 rm 125. Thanks in advance.

Im pretty sure in the 2002 years, kawi's and suzuki's rear wheel where the same, i think they will fit. I Once saw a guy with a kawi and when i was looking at it, it said the suzki was the maker of it. He said that in the 2000-2004 Years that suzuki paired with kawi and the parts where the same. Im am not sure if he is correct, or just a retard who bought a suzuki with kawi graphics. But, i hope it helps you, and i hope you find a wheel that fits!

Suzuki, RM, and Yamaha rims can all be interchanged because they all use 36 spokes. Hondas use 32 spokes. Not sure about KTM, Husky, and Gas-gas. More than likely they are 36" though. As long as you get the rim diameter and width right you don't have to pay much attention to brand specific. Spokes are more model specific because they have different bends. The only spokes that will work are RM models 02-07.

I was in your same spot last year looking for a replacement wheel for my 05 rm 250. you can use wheels from 02-07 on all rm's. Year models before 2002 will fit if you use the correct spacers. RMZ 250f wheels can also be made to fit with the proper spacers. I ended up updating to 2010 RMZ 450 wheels because the RM stuff is getting harder to find. I had to make special spacers at work in the machine shop.

What exactly are you needing a complete wheel or rim/spokes/hub etc? I might have something laying around that I would sell.
