I have this on the Tech Board as well, but not sure how many read that so.....
Well, OK, I don't NEED a wheel, but I want to get a spare so I can keep a new tire resdy to go. Besides PinWall, (they seem a little high) does anybody know where I should check? TIA Stan

Craigslist, your local MC classifieds, search and check (google) local motorcycle salvage yards, and of course .... Ebay.
I also have a spare set of wheels I got off Ebay awhile back

Dana and I have one we can sell for a lot less than Pinwall would charge. Ours is used, but then so are Pinwall's.
I've also a passenger backrest frame with a slightly different twist. You're not exploiting the full marketing potential of that wheel Willow...that one has the "easy mounting bead" mod. Removal/replacement of the rubber is a snap on that wheel! No tire machine needed! |

(Sorry, Stan for hijacking your thread. I'm sending you some money to make up for it.) |

It's still mostly round, too.
Bead, shmead, the tread handles most of the load!
