Fitment wont be an issue. 17" tyres are a lot easier to get off than 10". And while the wheels out, I'll replace the cush drive too. (And maybe inspect the brake shoes. I dunno of they're a bit shagged, or just naturally a bit shit. The Dio pulls up on a dime by comparison. You can buy single spokes. Hit up Anaconda Honda in Te Aroha. I bought a single spoke and nipple combo. Sure, may be a bit modern for his stock, but you never know. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Haha I checked that next morning after you mentioned it. Think it's just a warped rim, which I knew was there prior to the ride. 12 hours ago, RUNAMUCK said: *everyone who was there goes outside to check their bikes for damage....... I think everything else is sweet, I mean I rode Hanmer to Picton straight afterwards no issue! Might give the dirty bitch a clean this weekend and have a proper check while I'm at it. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
datlow 22,731 Posted March 12 Report Share Posted March 12 16 hours ago, RUNAMUCK said: I've asked the seller where they were made. Sure I replied to this anyway if not nbc/late ct110 uses a bigger dia brake so need shorter spokes also they have internal and external spokes (gotta undo a bunch possibly to get to the broken one if your unlucky) might pay to pull it apart first and see how lucky you are/how many you need to order can buy singularly from honda at absorbent price - pretty sure like $10-15 each or get a kit for a nbc or super cub from Thailand or Japan etc 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
