Damaged rear wheel.

[Rocketrottie]

Ahhh crap. Riding home last Friday. My usual ride from home from Las Vegas to Pahrump.
Hit a piece of angle iron that broke of a cattle guard. Front tire and wheel are ok.
But rear hit hard and dented wheel and killed the B F Goodrich tire.
Has anyone here ever had wheel repaired?
The few places I called in Las Vegas wont do motorcycle wheels and don't know anyone that does.

Am I out of luck? I see good used wheels on E-bay for $350 shipped.

The materials the wheel is comprised of would likely not respond well to cold repair (brittle fracture). Better to replace IMHO.

yep. Got the wheel and mounted a new BF Goodrich tire.
We are good to go. Only to find out I'm leaking brake fluid. looks like the washers failed at the banjo bolt. Now I'm trying to find those **** washers.

Thanks. Bike bandit has them. Thank you! Turned out to be a very windy weekend so I'm not too upset about not being able to ride.

Hopefully next weekend.
