Re: Pitster Info Please....

From what ive heard ktm 65 rims fit on the pitster and they are quality excell--- good luck finding someone who wants to sell just the rim and not the whole wheelset though, I think you gotta get bigger spokes for the excell too

Re: Pitster Info Please....

Sounds like your breaking-in your motors incorrectly. If your already ripping them within 20 mins that your problem.

Give Don at Pax Racing he can set you up on some excels even Stainless spokes if you want.

Also are you cleaning the threads on the bolts, shaking the locktite, then waiting atleast and hour for it to dry before you ride the bike?

You should be able to get them at any motorcycle shop that deals with excel rims.

If you have gas comming out of the overflow lines then you need to adjust your float height or the float might be sticking.
