newwheels

i have 01rkc spoke setup. i think the dreaded wobble is coming back .i had a new rear wheel put on at 7000miles now i have 14400 on my bike 3500 miles on dunlops.checked tire pressure this morning it was at 30psi. iput 40 psi in the tires and the wobble is alittle less. the rear wheel was replaced because the spokes were loose and warped my wheel.could my spokes be the problem . they feel tight. i used a wrench to hit them and they all sound the same . or should i bite the bullitt and spend1500 dollars for a nice set of true wheels and get rid of this loose spoke paranoia forever. or should i sell this 01 and get a new bike without spokes . i only have 14400 miles on my 01 and it is a perfect bike but i hate the wobble. spend 1500 or get new 07 any suggestions . my 01 is paid for so that might help the financial decision

Dump it on a trade for an '07, without spokes!

RE: newwheels

If you like your 01 still, why not just keep it and buy some new wheels? That's what I'd do.

Ditto that....

Bryan referenced Shooter as a potential source for wheels.... Shooter indicated in the the 360 brake thread that he'd take care of forum members. I think I'd give him a holler....
