Forgot to meas. the #### rim this morning, want to get it ordered
today.

Anyone know what size?

BTW, is it motion-pro that makes the really nice aggressive aluminum
ones?

Not off of the top of my bean. Should be the same as any modern off-
road bike with a 21" front wheel though, so it shouldn't be hard for
whatever shop you call to figure out.

Not so easy. If you are ordering from the Honda shop, ask them to check
what size rim is stamped on the side of a bike on the floor.

Double yes. My only complaint is that after 2-4 years, the rubbers starts
to come unglued from the metal part.

I think xr650's might have both 1.6 & 1.8 front rims... not sure on the
years...

I typically use the rubber rim locks, not sure on the AL ones.
