Can't it be fixed? I am positive there is a place on the web that does wheel straightening. When I had my Hayabusa, on that forum there was a dude that had followed too close and did the pothole dive, and got it fixed. I will see if I can find that site.

The wheel is actually fractured badly. definitely not worth repairing.
In other news, I discovered my RH forward control bracket is bent and snapped off a mounting bolt in the frame standoff. That should be fun to remove.
Ordered a used pair of brackets off ebay for $75. Need refinishing, but no corrosion and straight. Mine were faded badly, getting rusty at the pivots, and the shifter bushings needed replaced.

Hey I have a HD Slotted 6-Spoke 21 in. Front Wheel for 2000 and up Wide Glide front end with a used tire. Would match your bike. Would let it go at a good price if interested, PM me. It was on my WG for about 5 years then I went back to spokes.
