    OK, story is this, got a modded Yam TR1, going for the retro look, so
    need to bin the spiraly yam cast wheels and fit spokes, got some front
    and rear spokes from an xs650 but missing the rear brake shoe carrier
    part of the hub (smaller dia than the TR1 cast ones)

    So, looking for a pair of COMPLETE wire wheels OR a brake hub for an
    xs650 rear.

    What's to fit is going to have to be 20 mm dia rear axle, 210 mm rear
    hub width left to right along said axle, there's some pix of "as is" at
    http://www.surfbaud.co.uk/TR1/ if you need an idea.

    If I get sorted the original yammy cast wheels and spare xs650 wire
    wheels are up for grabs...

    Cash waiting for the right bits and can collect too, email addy is
    valid, TIA

    Don't forget to fit drum brakes while you're at it. Remember, discs are
    dangerous.

    No, exceeding your performance envelope is dangerous, that's a human
    failing, not a mechanical one.
