I'm hoping somebody could lend a bit of expertise here; I am ignorant to all things Harley but I'm trying to track down a particular front wheel for a CB550 cafe project I have going on.
What I'm after is a narrow glide front wheel, 19x2.5". I need a dual disc hub and something that will accept a 52mm OD sealed bearing. I found one on ebay but the seller hasn't responded to my queries as of yet and if this is indeed what I need, I want to lock it up ASAP.
I would *really* appreciate it if somebody could take a gander at these photos and let me know if this wheel sounds like what I'm after:
Harley SPORTSTER DYNA STREET BOB 19" FRONT WHEEL RIM OE
I can tell you that the warranty tag hanging off the wheel meant that there was something wrong with the wheel and the dealer swapped it out under warranty. They then had to hold onto the wheel for 90 days and if the MOCO didn't ask for it to be sent back then they were supposed to destroy it, not have an employee take it home and sell it on ebay! Could have been something as simple as a chroming issue with the wheel, but nonetheless.
