I would like to Replace the wire wheels on the bike.
I was looking at the 1987 BMW R80 RT cast iron model. what needs to be replaced in order to fit this model?
Or is there a similar wheel which will fit the R100/7 1977 model (not the snowflake)?
Any manufacturers or websites which sell aftermarket wheels (not wire)?
Any ideas are much appreciated.
thank you.

Re: Wheel Replacement R100/7 1977
The more commonly available ones for the /6 and /7 with rear drums are the Lesters. There were a few exotics available back in the day, like Morris and .... (?) but they are rare or unobtainium. Anything after 1985 is a completely different animal. This is when the Monolever, with it's bolt on rear wheel, single shock, etc, started. You'd basically have to transplant the entire suspension along with the wheels.
