    Yeah, na.... Cheers. I just want to send the wheels off, get the hubs cleaned & powder coated & 17" rims put on. Maybe new spokes. Followed by a pair of Avon Distanzias & a summer of twisty shenanigans. Only found THIS on Te google search..

    Anymore for anymore.......... puleeease.

    Stumbled across this thread and just out of interest you might be keen for a look at Canyon??
    I've just bought some Hagon Piggyback shocks, and progressive springs for the Bonnie from Canyon if you want a few ideas they do some some really nice spoke/Wider rim and mag conversions. Pricey tho??

    If you let the slide show go there's some sexy shit in there!

    Ive just had a pair of 3.5X17 & a 5X17 Takasago rims show up for a Pre racer 82 Katana 1100 im building.
    The rims have come not drilled. Could anyone shed any light on getting the hole angles correct, or if there is any special equipment required to do this apart from a drill.

    Only early Kawasakis and Brit nails have 40. There's probably some old world tool for punching the holes in the right place as there is for angling the inner and outer nipples. Darling.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    Hondas played with 32 and I think occasionally lower.
    but 65cc and 85cc mx bikes can be 28 and 32 and probably others as well.
    I think the Italians were into 40 spokes as well.
