I dented the front rim on my X1. Any recommended places for used/healthy rims and is it possible to use rims from any other Buells? Thanks. |

Check out the classified section here. It's almost at the bottom of the forum listing here. |

If its a PM wheel it can usually be repaired fairly easy provided only one side is bent. |

I don't know which rims are which - mine's a 3 spoke. No way it's a Marchesini considering how ugly it is. I assume it's the PM. What's typical repair cost and who would be recommended? |

PM are polished aluminum. If they are painted, they are castalloy, I think. |

I have one with perfect bearings and straight but desperately needs to be gojoed or polished or whatever. I'll sell it to ya if you want for $65 shipped if you're in the contiguous 48. |

Sorry, I knew I posted it but couldn't remember the price. I'll still let it go for $55 since I posted that. |
