My 08 cr125 has a couple decent flatspot's and once I kill the current tire on it. I would like to re-lace to a 18". So I'm basically looking for an 08 wr 125 rim/spoke combo. I know warp9 does a complete husky wheel, but I can't find much regarding rim/spokes. Husqvarna-world sells the 18" rim, but It would need to be black to match the front. I thought I've heard some yamaha's share the same spoke layout. Anyone got an idea?
You are pretty much stuck with the husky OEM rims for a 2008 if you want to keep it easy. You can have someone like Buchanan spoke lace just about anything together but you are going to pay for it and you end up needing custom spokes if you ever break any. Be careful with the warp 9 stuff there a lot of reports especially the husky 2 stroke stuff being wrong.
I looked at this before for my 2012 Husky. The KX250F (2011+ i think?) excel rim is the same part number as the husky. That's for a 19" rim though.... so that probably doesn't help.
From what I've read, they changed the hubs in like '10/'11 and the newer stuff uses jap pattern hoops. I replaced the [cracked] rear hoop on my 11 250F and used an Excel that is listed as fitting all the jap bikes. When compared to the rear wheel on my 09 125, there is a difference.
http://www.buchananspokes.net/ I always use Buchanan. So no one has a aftermarket off the shelf ? Be nice to swap the rear tire without spooning it on and off at the track.
You can use anything from 2002 and up I believe. I would stick to Excel wheels. You can always give us a call, we may have the wheel in stock. We typically charge 50% less to true and lace a wheel than our competition.
