Re: my vfr 400 nc30 project
With the uncertainty over kris's dymag widths i measured mine to compare to his and mine ended up being 6.5 inches wide in total. Wider than should be anyway, no probs apart from the tyre slightly rubbing on the chain but a couple of mm off the tyre edge sorted it.
At one time i was considering a 5.5 inner (6.5 outer) carrozerria rim from a speed triple for my nc and am sure i came to a conclusion that it could be easily sorted without much fuss.
For the price you payed for em you will eventually get a bargain. I bought another nc for 2800 to get my mags but once everything off that bike was sold the wheels only cost me 700 which i was happy with.

Yep same colour silver so most likely original, that does suprise me as the paint had started to lift very slightly in places.
7" inch wide
i think your be buggered if they are but i cant see it somehow, wasnt these dymags for a mid sized triumph? speed triple maybe but not the smaller ones.
kris's rims turned out to be 5.25 i think but measured 6" outer rim to outer rim.
7" inch wide
