ST Wheel

[YMFB]

My back wheel has some nasty scratches where a foreign object has passed through and hit the spokes. I cant afford to be without it so I wondered what was the possibility of finding a mint wheel that next time I need a back tyre they could be swapped. Its grey

There's one on ebay at the mo I think for £200

They turn up on Ebay quite often. Last one i was looking at went for around £200 though.

Hmmm, buying used wheels sound a little risky....may just simply be a swap for better wheels, or it may be parts from a stolen bike or worse.
Buyer beware

Also, with all the stolen bikes I see discussed here, I am a little surprised that buying parts on the net is not approached a little more gingerly..

The rear wheels are the same as used on the Monster S4S.
I brought one a while back off of ebay for around 200 quid including sprocket carrier.
FYI a new wheel from ducati without disc or sprocket carrier is about 500 quid !! :rolleye:

Once you get the wheel stick it in the bike without a tyre on it and spin it so you can check run-out, and see if it has any flat spots. This is the easiest way to quickly check its condition.

Mine was perfect.

Cheers,
John.

Guys the pictures of the wheels Ive seen on fleabay are not tye same as mine (i think) I will take a pic over the weekend and conpare.

Ah.... you have an ST4 then with 3 spoke wheels....
In that case a late Monster 900 / 1000 900ssie etc will be the one you need - the 4S has 5 spoke Marchesinis

[YMFB]

any idea what they cost new ? or what paint colour code is for the grey ?

[Rushjob]

There's a couple on ebay at the mo for around the £100 mark which looking at the year they're from should be the right colour grey...
