Spoke suppliers

Canuckcrawler
I'm in need of a spoke kit for the rear wheel of my 1986 cr250r. Aside from Buchanan Spoke and rim, is there any other suppliers? Tusk and Moose do not produce spokes for this year, (they stop at 1988) I've searched ebay and found nothing.
Any ideas?

Unless you have to keep it OEM ,couldn't you convert it to 19" and possibly open your self up to more options. ??

Already have the 18" rim, OEM hub & tire, just need the spokes. Trying to keep it as close to stock as possible.

Who makes the spokes for Dubya? I see them advertising vintage wheel building here on Vital.

I think Dubya makes the majority of their spoke in house. I know they have a lot of the equipment, And what they can't make I'd guess they get from Buchanan's.

Order a factory Honda spoke for a 88-91 wheel and see if it works. It's a 32 hole wheel just like the 86

I used Buchanan for my 86 cr250 replica build.
Any reason why you didn't go with them?

The 86 with the drum rear is going to be oem which I don't think you will find any NOS or custom made which would be Buchanan, or convert it to rear disc which would also be custom made by Buchanan...
