Spoked rear wheel

10-04-2011, 12:58 AM

G,day folks
Jonesy here, I'm a member of the Aussie and UK XS11 sites. and now a first timer here.
I recently posted a question on the UK site trying to tally up how many spoked wheel XS1100s have been spotted around the place, (The UK guys had about 3) and now extend this to you good people.
The link below also contains another link to the Aussie site where I posted some info on a home made spoke wheel that I did a few years back on one of my pre loved XS's.
So how many can you guys tally up? with pics would be excelent.
