Alpha have you tried hitting up Korider?

Yeah, but there isn't much activity in the GT250 section, and no one got back to me (with the exception of ordering new, which I didn't want). You'd think there would be a trashed one lying around somewhere in the US where I could get a rear wheel off of for cheap.

I'll keep an eye out...I thought you'd already found one, though. I had a chance to pick up a wrecked 250 a while back for $500 but didn't have a use for any of it...

Aww nuts. I am a bit strapped for cash at the moment, but some money should be coming in when I get my stupid engine sold, as well as a bunch of other parts lying around my garage.

of course I'm not too sure why you want the gt's wheel....?

It's wider. Uses a 150 section tire rather than the GS's 130.

Yeah but there's about 0157109587239857203457 cheaper and easier options out there...F3 wheels, for example...

The GT is such a cheap bike I figured it'd be cheap to get parts for. '98+ Kat wheels work too, from what I understand.

makenzie71 · February 21, 2006, 06:51:35 PM

yeah but the kat wheels are typically more expensive and only have 3-spokes...every bike has 3 spokes...

Swing up my way and I'll fit an SSSA to your bike. Then you can look for some nice Duc Marchesinis and run whateve profile you want...

Dude. I'm poor. I can't afford you! Otherwise I TOTALLY would.

makenzie71 · February 21, 2006, 07:00:04 PM

wah wah it's always about money...! lol I'll even do it for cost of parts just to get into the GS market...

yamahonkawazuki · February 22, 2006, 09:26:29 AM

nice but those damned part cost some coin also

makenzie71 · February 22, 2006, 09:44:44 AM

Parts cost? If you're talking about the VTR everything on it is sold in the states at regular prices.
