Hi Guys ,
Can someone tell me if cast wheels ,as fitted are correct for my 1976 KH250 please? I have had a quick trawl of the internet and can’t find anything definitive.
I did try uploading a pic but it is too big to post
Thanks Clive

Re: Cast Wheels
Cast wheels can be correct for a KH250 only in so much as they were offered as an option on new bikes by many UK dealers. Usually they'd keep your spoked wheels as part of the deal. The wheels were British made A.R.E. wheels. No KH250 came from Japan with cast wheels but KHs with A.R.E.s are considered acceptably correct.

Re: Cast Wheels
That’s great thanks these are A.R.E wheels and the “Made in Britain “ was throwing me a bit I must admitMitsui Spy wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2024 4:49 pm Cast wheels can be correct for a KH250 only in so much as they were offered as an option on new bikes by many UK dealers.
