Thanks for the link. Just took a look through their site. Seems like the widest option available is 2.15", which is what I currently have laced up. Looking to go a bit wider. Are motocross/supermoto rims a bad idea? Those are a bit easier to find, but I want sure if they'd be strong enough.

Does anyone know of a good place to buy rims from in Canada? I'm building some new wheels this year and was hoping to avoid international shipping if possible. Looking for a 17x3/17x3.5 combo or 18x3/18x5.5, 40 hole in black. Found a few Harley places, but they all seem to be 60 and 80 spoke...

I haven't posted anything since I started working on the KZ400 that I picked up in the winter. She's up and running, some small cafe mods, rebuilt carbs, tuned, etc. Been riding it for a little over a month now and she's running great. Next steps are to bring the gauges down closer to the...

Thanks for the warm welcoming. I may have found my bike, but still need to make the trek out to look at it. I'm keeping my mouth shut until it's all sorted out so that I don't jinx anything. A friend of mine who has a bit of experience with vintage Japanese bikes is going to come along and...

Hey, I'm new to the forum and looking to buy my first bike. I am in Halifax, so I'm glad to see some members in the area. Once I can find something for a cafe build and turn it in to something I'd like to ride, I'd be up for some sort of meet. PS, any leads on a half decent project for less...
