I dented the front rim on my X1. Any recommended places for used/healthy rims and is it possible to use rims from any other Buells? Thanks.

Check out the classified section here. It's almost at the bottom of the forum listing here.

If its a PM wheel it can usually be repaired fairly easy provided only one side is bent.

I don't know which rims are which - mine's a 3 spoke. No way it's a Marchesini considering how ugly it is. I assume it's the PM.

What's typical repair cost and who would be recommended?

PM are polished aluminum.
If they are painted, they are castalloy, I think.

I have one with perfect bearings and straight but desperately needs to be gojoed or polished or whatever. I'll sell it to ya if you want for $65 shipped if you're in the contiguous 48.

Sorry, I knew I posted it but couldn't remember the price. I'll still let it go for $55 since I posted that.
