Default Wanted: SV650 Front Wheel (2004,"pointy",Injected)

* EDIT * Front Wheel Sourced - NO LONGER REQUIRE ONE. Thank you. * EDIT *

Hi.

I would loooooove a front wheel for my baby.

I was subjected to an assassination attempt whilst on a roundabout, my jedi reactions saved me but the front wheel rim hit the concrete pavement and is now bent.

No guilt meant but she's off the road until I source one!
Pretty pretty please??


Silver Rim or Black Rim, Discs or no Discs, Im just after a wheel thingy.
Bike: SV650s k4, point/injected, 42k joyous and loved miles on the clock.

I will update this post right HERE if I no longer need one.
Front Wheel Sourced - NO LONGER REQUIRE ONE. Thank you.
Regards Will Turner, william.turner AT imperial.ac.uk, 07951 555 867

How damaged is it?

Motoliner in Kent do a repair service which doesn't cost the earth.

Dammm .. good thinking batman!
I hadn't even considered a repair. I will look them up. Pls let me know of anyone else recommended.

The Damage:
I will post a photo up of it by 9pm tonight (saturday). The rim has buckled both outwards and inwards (towards the hub), as you would expect from riding directly at the 3inch high conrete kurb.

Only one side of the rim received the impact, the other side looks ok. The impact is bad but does not leak air. As you spin the wheel, it does shift 0..5cm-1cm sideways around the impact zone.

Sounds finer for a repair bud, send a pic to motoliner to get their opinion too.

I had my front wheel repaired at Motoliner after hitting a huge rock in the road. Cost me £100 altogether. I doubt you'll find a second hand wheel for that little.
