I need to find a six spoke wheel that will work for my 98-99 CBR900RR front end conversion. Can somebody tell me the width of the hub on a 98 and up front wheel? Thanks!
98 - Up Hub Width?

What exactly are you trying to do here ? Put a 900RR front end on something else or change over from a 16" front wheel on a CBR ?
Both.
You need a '94-'97 VFR750 front wheel. Available new from Delkevic on eBay.
94-97 VFR750 & 96-98 CBR600F3 front wheels are a direct replacement for the 92-97 CBR900RR, not the 98-99 CBR900RR. The 98-99 CBR900RR have slightly wider triples and 310mm front rotors mounted to a larger diameter hub. The 98-99 front rotors mount up perfectly to a 99-00 CBR600F4 front wheel that I have, and since it uses the same rotors as the 98 and up VFR800's, I figured they would be my best bet.
Buddy of mine put a VFR wheel on both his '98 CBR900RR's - thought he used the 750 wheel but maybe it was the 800. He can't remember though so I can't confirm. Looks like you need to search the interweeb a little more.
The entire F4 wheel is supposed to be a direct swap for the VFR800 - if you have one and a set of rotors I would just use that to test fit.

Actually, what I need, is a measurment of the hub width. ;) I've searched the web quite a bit, which is how I've come up with the information that I have so far. The Fireblade forums are almost useless, not quite the database of information you'll find here or at superhawkforum.com. Thanks for the heads up on the F4 wheel though, knowing that it is a direct swap should give me all the info I need. Thanks.

62mm PCD
17mm disc off-set. (Last time I checked, your mileage may vary, don't drink and drive, etc.)
Btw, all VFR800 front wheels have the same dimensions, Fi, VTEC, whatever.
Ciao,
