Wheel crack?

Post by UmpquaRafter »

Listing my CBX on Bring A Trailer, and they're questioning this gap on the front wheel. They think the wheel is cracked. It looks like there are similar gaps where the wheel components come together. Anyone see a problem? Thanks!

Each 'spoke' is made up of a separate piece, that isnt a crack its just the join between each section, 10 of them in total

I'm in the pre-posting approval stage, so it hasn't been listed yet. I'm proofing their proposed write up. Cracked wheel comment was from BAT.

Send them this thread that discusses the construction of the wheels and shows disassembly and reassembly:
