What was wrong with it? If it was not stolen or anything we probably could have still gotten it fixed.

well it was totalled and the guy bought it from the insuance co, but they also had a 03 750 and they sent the guy off that got the 03 with the 06 title. well they wouldnt give up the 03 owners name of info and they wouldnt get ahold of them to fix the problem. so it was a 06 750 with a new frame and a title for a 03, but it gets worse, the title got lost in the mail and they guy i was getting it from never got his name on the title. i said screw it cause ive been stressin over it, so he came up and got it back. sucks cause it was a real nice bike.

and i wouldnt feel right trading you knowin the titel was wierd

I dont do any steel 22s...PERIOD...You cannot mill a steel wheel and the people who run them are asking for for major problems.

However you can buy some machined aluminum 22s and have them painted or powdercoated.

whell machining the steel wheels cant be done , but there's another way .
i sometimes watch american hot rod and the boyd coddingtonwheels are made from a aloy rimblank in the wheelsize required and a custommade/machined center
they heat the blank up and drop it over the center then they let it cool and weld the rim to the center on an automated weldingrig .
if you can find a company who makes steel rimblanks in 22 inch you could machine the 22.5 inch rim off the center and down to required size heat the rim drop it over the center line it up and weld it .
it schould work and it still would be safe but i wouldnt be surpriced to see it costing more then a set of reworked alcoa's

you know in the beginning i thought you done the aloy's that way too it would be a nice idea because you can have the rim fit in the wheelwell and you can finaly use the cracked wheels too (just lob off the rim and put another one on there )

I think some of the older moter homes had 20" wheels, but your right husk finding new hoops now day I think you'd be hard pressed. but you might get someone like stockton wheel to make some for you


after all the trouble and time you could have some aluminum 22's or 24's
