Hawk 250 Front rim
 
Looking for a front rim for the Hawk 250, would prefer the black rim. Also need 2 fork tubes.

New or used?

If we are talking just the actual outer rim, an 21 x 1.6 36 hole front wheel from any old Honda will work.

If you need the full wheel assembly, then you have to order through RPS or an RPS dealer that sells parts for them.

The same goes for the forks.

Links to parts via 360powersports.
Right fork. https://www.360powersports.com/ricky....100031.01.htm

Left fork. https://www.360powersports.com/ricky....100031.02.htm

Front wheel. https://www.360powersports.com/ricky....100029.02.htm

Total cost: $305 plus any shipping.

Also, be prepared to wait a couple months. Myself and two others who bought front wheels ended up waiting that long for ours. When you put the order in, if there is a place for notes/requests type in that you want a black rim.

As a side note, if you are going to order a new front wheel assembly, I would happily buy that front wheel hub off of you, minus the spokes and outer rim.

I had to wait 2 months for a full wheel assembly. You could always ask how long just the rim would take. Don't forget to get spokes to replace any bent ones.

those fork stantions can be straightened ..

Thats probably better than using a torch and bench vise like I was going to do. lol

upgasgas1224 01-14-2019 08:18 PM

and people wondered why i wanted to switch to excel rims or something better than stock because this steel garbage bends to easy.

I agree. I would replace them with a better quality aluminum rim before buying the OEM ones. I've been lucky so far. Also get in the habit of checking and maintaining the spokes will help prevent spokes from breaking.

While you will not hear a peep out of me disagreeing with the stock rims and spokes being fairly wimptastic, I also remind myself to look at the picture of both fork tubes being pretty well bent as well. Considering how hard that impact was, that wheel came out pretty well.
