Honda enthusiast:
I need a little help guys, I have a nos front rim to build the wheel up, but the rear wheel rim is slightly rusty and I need to get it rechromed or replaced so it would help to know the size....
17 x ???

Thanks Hubert

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Assuming it's an original the wheel diameter & rim size is usually stamped on the rim near the shoulder where the spokes fit - it's probably listed in the parts book as well. Took me a few wheel rotations to find mine that were slightly wider than the originals on my 500.

Honda enthusiast:
Thanks Ted, I'll go and have a look for the stamping...I'm probably going to get it rechromed at Prestige Plating eventually...

Cheers Hubert

AshimotoK0:
From memory it's a 17" X 2.25 rim ... It will be about £200 to have Prestige re-chrome it.

Honda enthusiast:
Cheers for that Ash, I'll get it rechromed by Prestige as I am very pleased  with the quality and they stick to what they say timescales wise. Replacing with a pattern one is less desirable. The bikes very original and that will suit it well.

Hubert
