Mine, so i have been told, will fail on it's M.O.T if i don't get it replaces. a front wheel from a main dealer will cost arround about £300. If anyone has had the same problems and found the answer then please contact me as soon as you can.

Thanks in advance

if it will not fail, why do you want to replace it????

whats wrong with your current front wheel.

if you really wanna get a new one, try ebay (as thats the cheapest place)
or breakers yards, check out the breakers yard section in MCN.

if you got loads of cash, your local friendly stealer will put a new one on your bike

Between the forks is probably the best place to look......

Sorry, that wasn't really helpful was it

Finding a front wheel is no easy job.

The wheel usually gets the meat of any collision and so finding an undamaged one from breakers is a job and a half.

How much is a wheel from the dealer?
