Anyone know of a vendor that has good prices on wheel sets like Kennys is using? The gold wheel with a silver aluminum hub?   

TIA

Dubya USA built those. It's a silver Haan hub on gold DID rims. Might ask them which version of the rim, probably a ST-X. There's a Vital discount if you call them and mention us.

Don't call them gold. Suzuki's rims have been called yellow. I use to work for Excel. Gold is a completely different color.

That is correct-- the Suzuki yellow rims are completely different than the "gold" rims ,but Dubya can hook you up with the correct yellow. They did a set for my 06RM250  ECC bike

Haan hubs are the way to go, they use a thicker gauge spoke. I have a couple sets, they are bulletproof!

Fork lugs look tired. A little black Krylon would go a long way there. Smile

Talked to them on the phone earlier,   very nice people over there!

Kenny uses the DID DirtStar ST-X and they are more expensive than the Excel Takasago.

Putting paint on those lugs would be a sin no doubt.

In my opinion, you need the OG gold anodized color for the CR, not the yellow "gold" color on Kenny's bike.

It's closer to the color of his Showa fork tubes.
