Has anyone purchased aftermarket spokes for their 1200R? I was thinking that a set of spoked wheels with the rim anodized in black would look quite nice on a roadster. Can anyone recommend were I might find this at a good price?
Thanks

or www.sorgys.com (sorgy)
Both are tops in my book. Fast shipping and great pricing. Also, think about powdercoating them. Much cheaper.

Thanks for the info.....I will check them out....
Anyone else swaped out wheels for aftermarket spokes? And what did it cost?

I used Buchanan Spokes. They were great, stainless steel spokes are much harder and stronger than stock. I think I paid $100 for the front and $200 for the heavy duty rear spokes. With the new spoke designs you can really build a low cost spoked wheel that looks great! And it will be lighter than the stock wheels. That's what I call a win win!:clap

Talk to Chris at Trak-Tek (one of our vendors). He's Buchanan dealer, and sells the stainless spoke kit for $85/wheel. Don't know if you need the heavy duty ones for the rear or not, but he can get them as well.
