If you have PM wheels, use mothers metal polish paste, and lots of elbow grease, that will remove the oxides. All buell wheels are "3" spoke 2 versions are a cast type the surface is "rough" (relitive to the pm wheels) If they are as they were when new they are also usualy powder coated. The PM wheels when they were new they were mirror polished, pm's are "spun" from sheet aluminum and have a weld visible at the hub. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/cgibin/discus/show.cgi?tpc=43&post=488767#POST488767 This is a link to pictures of my bike it is equipped with 1 version of the PM wheel, the earlier version is similar with a slot in the center of the spoke( as seen from the side) (Message edited by oldog on September 09, 2005) (Message edited by oldog on September 09, 2005) |

If that is it, that is my S3 sitting next to it. I hope you have fun with that bike and I hope Sean will be able to get another bike soon. |

Dave, That's my M2. Sean is a good guy, and I am very happy with my new Buell. |
