    Motard wheels

    My nephew has a set of motard wheels which came with his KX250. He only wishes to ride dirt so they are surplus to his needs. They were used from time to time on his bike by the previous owner and are fitted with slicks. These are probably racing rocks by now and we have no idea at all of how many heat cycles they have been through. You could try some tyre softener to get a little life out of them I suppose, was always good for one second a lap on the old Taupo circuit.............(this of course is only an educated guess)
    There is a sprocket on the rear wheel but I have not had a chance to look too closely at it.
    He would be happy for around $250 for the pair. He and his wife have their first baby due in a week or so and I am sure they could use the dosh.

    Had a closer look at the wheels: they have "Suzuki" stamped on both of them. The front has a Dunlop slick 90/65/17 and the wheel has one brake disc with provision for a second. The rear has a Bridgstone 120/590/17 slick on and has a brake disc and 32 toothe sprocket.
