    Where will it be shipped to? If you don't mind me asking. Just a "rim"? No hub or spokes?

      I just need the rim, I have a good hub and spokes. I live in Harrisburg Pa. The bike was in pristine condition till a car pulled out in front of me last week. I am looking for one with decent chrome that I can buff out so it will look right on the bike after it's painted. The bike has to be repainted

          Still looking. I found a couple "French & Hecht" rims. Bruce Palmer's book (2nd ed. page 193?) states they made rims for Harley production after 61 or 62. They have a Harley part #43006-62 on them. I can post a picture of them. Most of the other rims I have are complete wheels with a lot of them having tires still mounted.

            Thanks for checking for me. I would appreciate it if you could post or PM me a picture of the best looking one, I have one now but it would need to be replated to match the bike. I am looking for one that will clean up nice with jeweler's rouge on my buffer. I remember that name from palmer's, also Firestone. Thanks again-Terry
