I paid £80 for used GasGas rims, my original rear one was knackered plus I wanted to run tubeless anyway. Managed to get a brand new, never used original rear DID rim, so got the original front and the new rear polished and anodised gold as a spare (as I know how hard they are to find second hand)
Total cost was £420 not inc the price of the GasGas rims. It was on the xpensive side I thought but the finish is exceptional. Hubs are standard TLR200 hubs powdercoated satin black, stainless steel spokes with the rims anodised Gold with a polished lip. So that hopefully it won't show up quite as much when I mark the edge of the rims.
Alright Joe,
Where abouts did you get the rims done if you don’t mind me asking? Mine are original Honda TLR’s in gold, was really keen at doing the same as you and putting a polished edge on the outside! I take it that was done when you sent them away too?
Got a full TLR restoration on the go. Previous owner had removed lights etc from the bike but left some connections in.
Anyone got any pointers of what can be removed/left in. I know the green and black are for the ignition as passed through the kill switch. I’m not sure what the other wires are for, can anyone help?
Pictures below. Will post more of the project if anyone is interested!
