Well, your best bet is to send your stock hubs off your wheels to Buchanans and have them build some 17"s around them. It'll be hard to match up the stuff on a bike that old otherwise.

Buchanan Spokes are very clever.. they need the hub model and so on and the dia and width of the rim, they will tell you exactly what you need. I converted a xr200 from 17 to 18", these guys are aces when it comes to spokes.
