i posted the add that i found on ADV through craiglist. Really a nice guy. I texted him about what i wanted to do. Cost me around 50 bucks shipped to my door.
Pretty easy to put on. Took me around an hour to do both wheels.

My problem is that i am on a different continent, so phoning the guy is a bit expensive.

I will find out some more info for you. I know that he ships world wide. I think he has a facebook page.

Thanks a bunch

Billy's address is

Face book is

Or he said you can find them on Ebay.

Hopefully that helps, if it doesn't let me know.

He'll be even more unhappy if he finds out what AG did to the spokes

Only kidding. I like them. Maybe a set on the DRz

Again waiting for parts. So i decided to polish the carb tonight. Looks great.
Pictures are from a cell phone but you can get the point.

Aye, but our said barn-owner will be flipping cartwheels when he sees his rusting hulk of an excuse of a bike looking like a million dollars. Even if someone 'laminated' the spokes!

Got most everything pretty much done, just waiting on plastic and my pipe and a seat cover and i also am machining a cover for the alternator assy.
Today, i got all the brakes and cables done. The brakes were a pain in the ass.

Here are some new photos nothing much has changed.

You can definitely be proud of what you have done so far.
