Now I know I'm being lazy here cause I'm asking this question, but I know you guys can save me a lot of work. Is the flywheel taper on a 6B Sachs the same as the flywheel taper on an early KTM 175 (73)? I could take two bikes apart and check but this is easier. I'm trying to swap a heavy flywheel Motoplat off my Jackpiner with a lighter Motoplat on my Trialer.

Bad news [B)] The Sachs taper and the KTM taper are different.
