Hello, well I think this is the last part needed. It's been a interesting path since I got rear ended and shoved in a curb, and I guess flew in the air.
I thought I had fixed everything and was going on first ride. Uhhh no. So pretty bent front wheel. I needed new rubber anyway. I don't know what else will work using the stock rotors and brakes, but I'm open to anything. Just started looking, any suggestions are welcome, hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.
I appreciate all the help so far. Dave.

Any wheel 1985-2007 will fit the bike. However, '85-'92 is a smaller rotor, '93-'07 is a larger 298 mm rotor, the bolt pattern is the same, so if you wanted the 1985 thin cast aluminum 'spoke' wheel, with the later rotors on it (298 mm) you could run that. I believe the 1986 & '86 cast aluminum spoke wheel is the lightest front wheel, OEM.

If you're gonna run at the dragstrip, weight is something to consider.

I scrapped a wheel awhile ago, and it was enough for a fast food meal.

So I could get the older wheel, hopefully an 86, and then bolt up the rotors from my old one? Axles and width is the same?
And then go through the drive in at Wendy's??

Here's a front from my 2000 that is clean and straight as well as a polished one with a decent bridgestone Battlax tire mounted. Let me know if interested, we can discuss price. I'm in wI

I got a wheel, kinda wished I waited and got the 85 wheel, oh well. I don't know how to delete the PARTS NEEDED post.
