Author Message   Bad_karma Posted on Saturday, July 29, 2006 - 04:06 am:        I HAVE A REAR PM WHEEL OFF A 96 S-1 THAT HAS DAMAGED IN THE BEARING AREA ON THE PULLEY SIDE. DOES ANYBODY KNOW OF A FACILITY THAT CAN REPAIR THE OUT OF ROUND DAMAGE. ALREADY TRIED PM. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE   Henrik Posted on Saturday, July 29, 2006 - 10:53 am:        Just a WAG, but some of the bike mags have adds for wheel repair facilities; Kozman comes to mind. That might be a place to start. A Google search for "motorcycle wheel repair" yields lots of different options. Henrik   Easy_rider Posted on Saturday, July 29, 2006 - 11:40 am:        I had a local machine shop do mine. It was a neighbor so I got a great price on it. Somewhere on this site Lornce left some specific instructions that his contact used. I went with a looser fit and have am doing just fine at 6000 miles. The bearing on the opposite side was a little sloppy on mine. In hind sight I should have had a sleeve put in that side as well, but some bearing adhesive has held it on place. Check your before you take it in.   Bad_karma Posted on Sunday, July 30, 2006 - 01:38 am:        Henrik Thats a good idea that i didn't consider. I was hoping to get it done in a local shop. but will research both thanks   Bad_karma Posted on Sunday, July 30, 2006 - 01:41 am:        Easy_rider Thanks I was hoping to hear that this repair was within the capabilities of a local machine shop. It seem it can be within their capabilities. thanks   Easy_rider Posted on Sunday, July 30, 2006 - 02:40 pm:        If you're anywhere close to Indy, I'll get the number of the place that did mine.
