What rim
That is a Mammoth fat spoke 21X3.5
I had them once before from DNA but promised myself to never do business with them again.
This one is from Ebay- American classic motors. It was a wheel/rotor/tire set shipped for 900.00 (best offer), delivered on time as promised.

This is the second wheel tire combo I have purchased from them with a good experience both times.

Update on FM 107
Motor is finally re-assembled and ready to fire off on heat cycles today.
We upgraded with the Fuel Moto 107, Woods 777 cam and b level heads.
Also added a fueling high output pump, Jims chain tensioners and screaming eagle clutch spring.
Going with the Thundermax and canned map Fuelmoto sent until 1000 miles, then I'll spring for the dyno tune.
Work stinks.

350 miles on the big bore
Put my first 300 miles on the new kit and to summarize- I am very happy with it.
I'm obviously in the break in phase but the torque on athe FM 107 is already very noticeable. I know longer have issues with lugging in the 2000-2600 rpm range like before. The bike is a beast now. It is true, these kits are super noisy and take some getting used to. The posts I've read on here prepped me for this as those with the screaming eagle heavy breather have reported it, but it is impressive.
I'll drop the oil at 500 miles and see how it looks.
Next up, new levers, heel tow shifter, and lowers with 6.5" Focals.

dropped for paint
Weather has been holding in Seattle but it was time to drop it off for paint.
I got my rear Ohlins from Howard done- rides like a dream.
Urban cycle is doing the new three color job and some other small upgrades including throwing in the front Ohlin cartridge kit, and a new fender set-up to match the stretched bags.
I must admit Yaffe quality is top notch. Take them out of the box, 5 minutes to install and scuff them for paint. See you in February.
