wheel rims
toucheturtle:
Devon Rims do the best chrome rims, British made and the wheel builder I use says they're the best, they do stainless as well. Some stainless rims are quite dull and don't look as good as chrome
Johnwebley:
I have stainless rims and spokes on my 500
supplied by Central,they also add spare spokes ,
I also have the same on my RD Yam,but these were from Hagon,the eason I swopped suppliers was Hagon had all the details and dimensions
can't fault either ,and they keep nice and shiny and clean

I got a set of butted spokes and rims cwc stainless from Central and built them myself, it was about £380 for both wheels I also have a set on my H! and I used their spokes with the original Takasko rims on my GT750 all very good.
Moorey:
When you talk to people that have restored their bikes not many have built the wheels. Yet it is quite easy do but seems to frighten a lot off for some reason. Building a wheel I find very satisfying.

I got a pair from DS and they are fine
I rechromed an original front cost 90.00 DS new rim cost 90.00 (in the end used DS and kept the rechromed one for later)
I used stainless spokes and nipples for ease of cleaning and hopefully they should last longer
Yes they are date stamped on the side of the rim,but they are DID rims like originals
