Hey all, first post in the forum (wealth of knowledge here <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s --> ). Here's the story, I picked up a 3LN3 about 2 months ago for $1800, had a few minor problems, which I've sorted out. The only problem I couldn't sort out myself was a dent in the front rim, so I took the rim to a wheel / rim specialist to get fixed, however they informed me that there was a hairline crack in the wheel and that they would not work on it. So now I've got my new (and first) bike running fantastically..... with no front wheel. <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_sad.gif" alt="" title="Sad" /><!-- s --> Now, I'm assuming that you can't simply weld up the crack or similar (correct me if I'm wrong), it just sounds too unsafe. So I'm looking for a 3LN3 front rim (or any FZR250 rim that'll fit) with dual brake rotors. Can't seem to find any at the local wreckers, the best I found was this: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.importmc.com.au/cms/Bikes/Wrecking/Wrecking.htm">http://www.importmc.com.au/cms/Bikes/Wr ... ecking.htm</a><!-- m --> . So I was wondering if anyone was looking to part with one? or lead me to a wrecker in Adelaide, Australia. btw, I've already posted a question to the website above and am awaiting a reply, will post back here to inform everyone of the reply. So to sum up... I need a wheel. <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s --> Thanks, cOwMoO
Good site for parts Hey all, Just giving an update on parts searching in case it helps anyone in the future. I looked all over the net (and rung a heap of wreckers in Adelaide, to no avail) and found the best website was: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.findapart.com.au/">http://www.findapart.com.au/</a><!-- m --> They send out your inquiry to a bunch of wreckers who respond with quotes etc. Got back some good quotes (the best being from importmc.com.au, who I'd already contacted <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> ) Anyway, just thought I'd share a good spot to search for parts. cOwMoO
