Title: WTB: Front 3-spoke wheel for 96 K1100RS
Post by: VashonKbike on June 27, 2015, 01:20:47 PM

I'm looking for a 3-spoke front wheel for my 96 K1100 RS.  My current one has a slight bend and whir that supposedly can't be fixed easily.  So obviously I'm looking for a straight one.

Im considering going to the Wheel Master as well.  Anyone had luck with him? http://www.thewheelmaster.com

The 3 spoke wheels are really soft, I suppose it`s better than them breaking!!!!
I had a 3 spoke rear, I put some soap on the rim and lots of heat on the other side, when the soap went black the wheel had annealed (possibly not an exact science) I then using my 6ft7in bro in law, a sledge hammer and some wood adjusted the wheel to almost within spec (by eye) I then used the wheel for lots of miles
