The wheels (Paully) has been officially confirmed as CMA :wink:

I have changed the bars & fitted a decent throttle set up too :|

I just need the carbs now..... They have travelled the Atlantic and are now on British soil :twisted: but......

The UK Customs & Excise Dept, in their wisdom, have decided that although I pay Nat Ins & TAX like the rest of us, I don't contribute enuff...
So they have charged me an extra £50 odd :shock:
Parcel Force have sent me a letter saying they paid it for me (how sweet) and charged me anuvver £8 for the privelidge :roll:

Anyhow... they should be with me Tuesday :D Hope to get the bike sorted for next weekend & the SW Rally :wink:
And on the 7th day... Zeds were created!

They might well be 1994 zx9r wheels as I used to have one and they look very familiar.

Think of it like this Mark - if they are ZX9R wheels they will be less of a liability than old Mag ones and they look good so I'd leave them on :wink:

There not ZXR9 wheels they are 5 hole disc bolt fitting and Mark's are 6 also the ZXR9 wheels curve slightly from the centre. If the wheels are both 18 inch then they may be GSXR1100J wheels. However a friend of mine had a set the last model CMA's that were hollow and very similar to the ones you have fitted Mark. I will see if I can dig out a photo of his Harris.

Here is a picture of the ZXR9 front wheel fitted to my Harris before powdercoat and after fitting.
