Have seen them on one person's bike, I believe his tag is Badlionsfan, he's got some pictured in his parts ad in the classifieds.

I have a link I can dig up for a company that can make you whatever you want. About $1000. Correct size offset, finish, etc. Remember if you go wire wheels you have to run tubes (sealing issues around spokes). PM me, he is not a sponsor.

Big_Koch also has wire wheels on his tuber. I don't think it'd be too hard to adapt the Sportster hubs to the tuber forks and swingarm and then have any size rim laced on the hub you want.

PM the guy named big_koch or something.

He's done it/doing it.

Edit:
Guess I should read the whole thread...

Sorry Phelan, I think I need to stop posting for a little while, I'm obviously making a fool of myself.
I'll be going into lurk mode for a bit
