Title: about time ffs.. Post by: rat on June 12, 2010, 11,40:32 AM after comming off on wills ride a while ago at neeerim, i broke two spokes on the front of my dr..i just got my wheel back today. ::).
get this...apparently on the dr650, the spokes arnt adjustable..so long story short , they had to bolt cut all my spokes and relace the whole wheel. :o. now they could've told me all that and i would've cut the spokes myself. ::).ive laced many wheels before on bmx/mountain bikes so it aint that hard.. normaly i wouldnt worry to much but ive spent pooe loads at this dealership and im a little pissedoff >:( so with no dr650 spokes in stock at the dealership , i had to wait, then told they were on back order.. then i pick it up and wullaaahh $188 friggin bucks later im back on the dirt.. 2 spokes = $188..yep thats $94 bucks a spoke... so my theory is..im gunna steal dr650 spokes and sell them on the black market..ill be friggin rich..(how mant spokes in a wheel) x 94 bucks wooooot.. dont let me catch ya looking at my spokes... >:( ;D Title: Re: about time ffs.. Post by: Aaron on June 12, 2010, 12,16:55 PM Maybe it had Z spokes. Anyone remember them. I had them on an old YZ125 with a similar result to yours. Except it cost about $300 in the early 90's.
