Author Message   Buellboiler Posted on Sunday, May 21, 2006 - 10:54 pm:        Sorry if this has been covered previously, but I tried the search and found no match. My recently purchased 2001 X-1 has PM wheels, but they are the non-slotted variety. Most that I have seen are slotted. What difference (if any) is there between the slotted and the non-slotted PM wheels? Thanks, Boiler   Oldog Posted on Sunday, May 21, 2006 - 11:02 pm:        The slotted ones are the earlier versions the oldest tubers having pm wheels have 4 spokes and they have slots in them , then the 3 spoke with a slot these IIRC are "straight" then the 3 spoke no slot, these are the last varient of the pm produced. Boiler, a last thought before performing any maintence on your pms' ( wheel bearings ) you might want to peruze the KV on wheels the PMs are no longer made and there are bearing removal issues to be aware of
