RE: rear stock cast wheel or chrome spokes??
I was just reading this thread and saw a hdforums sponsor...

Given your geographical location, and limited riding season, personally, I would go with the shortest amount of downtime. But then, I would do that here and I ride 12 month a year.
As far as the chome repair, there is always ChromeMasters. OCC seems to like their work. They are also in Nashville. I've never been inside, but I've rode past the place..WHAT A DUMP!! But, I guess they do good work.

RE: rear stock cast wheel or chrome spokes??
I just ordered the new chrome spoke wheel today. Now my bike will be down for about a week. Thats not good this time of year in michigan, but I just couldn't bring my self to put on the old pitted wheel.
I always wanted a spoke rear wheel, now I will find out if it's worth it.
After I spend some time on it, I will up date on how it worked out.
Thanks to all of you for your advice...Gary.

Good choice on the spokes. My bike has spokes and my wife rides a Sporty with spokes. Cleaning isn't really that bid of a deal. For that matter, if I had solid wheels I'd still spend the time it takes to keep them clean. So the spokes may take me an extra 10 minutes every couple of weeks, big deal.
