Wanted : Reputable seller of excel rims

[YZ250H]

Looking for rims for the YZ250H.  Would be good if they have the capability of drilling them to suit.  Hope to use standard NOS spokes.

[YSS]

Try Link International  in Brisbane, they are the importers for the rims . I did make the maschine for them to drill the rims , so I am sure they can do the job .

[oldfart]

Links  - WILL NOT SELL TO THE PUBLIC  . They where 3 klms up the road ... now moved . Buy universal rims as they suit our era  . If you are having trouble send me a pm and I will get some prices 

[evo550]

Are you in Brisbane H ?
If so try Ash's wheels in albion, the best.

[YZ250H]

I don't live in Brisbane EVO, but I get there regularly for work.

Oldfart - what are you suggesting in universal rims ?  Is that a brand name or are you suggesting generic ?

What about Morad ?  I was only going excel 'cause that's what everyone seems to go for. They seem to get good raps

Gday YZ250H, Try John Titman racing in QLD..(07) 3245 7699...I rang them the other day looking for excel's to suit a 79 YZ125 and the guy was helpfun and said they can drill to suit any bike in any colour they make. sounded all too easy. It was $199 a rim in gold colour. He was expensive on spokes, but vintage iron in the US have them for $90 a set made to suit. If you find any better deals on rims, post it if u can as i haven't purchased mine as of yet. good luck

[YZ250H]

MXM - was the 199 to drill the holes only - I hope not 

[mxmaniac]

Shit no, that was all inclusive!! I thought it wasn't bad but if there someone cheaper im in!

[YZ250H]

Man that is cheap if you ask me.  I'll be going for your deal.  Does John Titman sell to the public ??  I remember calling them (I think) and they wouldn't sell me spokes direct to the public.  Of course I could be having a seniors moment .  I have bought so many parts and spoken to so many people they all blurr together.
I got a price off the lads on the sunshine coats for polished Morads, but I suppose we are comparing apples with oranges.
If I can get the Excels for $199 each I will be very very happy.  Thanks for the tip.
For sale  - 2 DID rims front full polish, rear beyond polishing 

[mxmaniac]

I am pretty sure they sell to the public, i told him i will be callin him back to place my order and he said that was cool, so i take it its that easy! I only spoke to them last week, i will be calling them to place my order tomorrow..  Them seniors moments.. well, i am 27 and sure i suffer alzimas.. wats my name again      

[YZ250H]

Let us know how you go mate.  I will be close behind you - in fact I will give them a call tomorrow.  If he doesn't sell to the public we will have to find a friendly bike dealer prepared to take a small percentage for doing nothing.

[oldfart]

universal    =  spoke hole size and angle   

[YZ250H]

Ahhh - now I know.    Thanks Oldfart
I'm learning - obviously very slowly 

[mxmaniac]

I spoke to my old mate Byrner at Byrners Suzuki in Freakston (Frankston) in Vic and the rims for my 83 KX250 were Excel's and he got them from titmans, so i will order mine tomorrow from titmans and if there is any hassle, Byrner will get them for me. I will keep you posted!

[YZ250H]

No worries mate.  Let us know how you go.  If they won't sell to the public I will put the hard word on the local Yamaha shop.  I think I should own about half of it by now .  I will hold off until I hear - otherwise they might get pissed off at 100 people ringing up for rims they won't sell us
