Just bought a dinged SRAD wheel from Tre today (top lad) , and span it up in the forks tonight. Looks very promising (unlike the first one I just bought off ebay - nowhere near right - hub too narrow, 25mm spindle, but has speedo drive??? fair sale but lesson = ask more questions).
I will need a trip to motoliner to true the wheel up and a trim of the spindle / nut as per Kieran's project (cheers for the posts mate, totally invaluable!). Dont think my GSXR front end is going to be as tidy as Kieran's effort, but then neither is the rest of the bike!!!
I have a set of 300 mm and 320mm discs, so might need some spacers depending on how successful the SV master cylinder is, but we shall see!
Should I bother with getting the wheel powdercoated, or should I just spray paint it for now (I need silver, its white) - the rest of the bodywork is still battered until I can get her MOt'd and back on the road etc (front end swap due to crash)....
Photos when it starts to look half decent....
