    Was just wondering if anyone had ever found a way to put spokes on an XJ both front and rear or really any other type of rims on one. Obviously being a shaft driven bike I wonder if there are conversion kits or a mod that you could fabricate onto a potential rim to be used for the rear.

    Ah sweet. Thanks Max. If I get my hands on those rims I'm definitely going to try some different spoke patterns. I'll write it up if I do. Thanks again.

    No problem HH, I always liked the mod that guy did. Looking forward to a write up and some pics if you go that way.
