Title: WTB front wheel
Post by: plurpimpin on June 25, 2008, 08:15:46 PM
I'm looking for a front wheel for my bike. It needs to be straight without bends or dents. I'd rather it be black but i'm open to other colors. I wanna get my new bike rideable! lemme know what you have.

You can use a katana 600/750 front wheel as they are the same as the gs. There are a few up on ebay right now.

Yes.89 to 97 are the same as the GS.Just transfer over your brake disc and plastic hub cover.Also the 98+ wheel is a direct fit.It's a straight spoke design and 3.5 inches wide instead of 3 inches like the GS.

I can find one (pretty sure there is 1 at my local junkyard) but usually they are $75 or so. Tires are hit or miss, but it wont have rotors or nothing ... but it should be good otherwise. I will fit it and run it on their truing machine and see if its got any bends/run out.
You'd have to pay me, if I dont find, I'd refund you, cos I run there every 2-3 weeks, and I am making a run either tommorow or friday.
Cool.
