I am fitting a zephyr 1100 rear wheel on to my z1000 ltd . I have am  using a gs 1000 
braced swing arm via some spacers. The 
Zephyr wheel is 17" with a 160 x 70 tyre.
I am thinking around a 17 tooth front and 46 rear sprocket, anyone with any experience of a similar conversion. 
Any help much appreciated.

I used "gearing commander" to calculate that 18-46 would give me 70mph at 4200 rpm in 5th (160-60-17 rear tyre) if you google gearing commander you can punch in your tyre size and ratio, it will then give you speed in gears etc to help you decide what is right for your planned use
