There are none that I know of. Tri-Z is all by itself.

i was also wondering where i could order a new 10 inch aluminum rim. i know douglas made them at one time.

cant you use a 250r hub and rim

86 and later bw200 have gold front wheels and they are a direct bolt on. I have a tri z front disc brake on my bw200 and my stock bw200 silver wheel fits on their just fine.

[jmax857]

what size rim is the bw200?

[640AK]

it is a 12 inch rim

The BW is a TRI-Z front end isn't it? I would think it would be easy to find a gold front wheel, since almost all TRI-Z's had gold wheels from the factory.

Douglas never made a 10" front wheel for the TRI-Z. Only the 250R. The TRI-Z bolt pattern is too big to fit in a 10" wheel.

You can swap a 250R hub, rotor and wheel to the TRI-Z forks.

There always seems to be a few come up here & there on ebay etc.. Guess they're from the ones that got converted to quads....

Does that mean a Tri-Z hub, rotor and wheel would go onto a first gen (85) 200X?

If you were so inclined and could spin an axle with spacers and make a bracket to fit the brake and yes it could work. I thought you were looking for a gold rim...? I know back in the day switching a 200x front end out with a tri-z was common when running flattrack and TT(to lower the bike). Then it's a matter of having a complete frontend to swap and the fork tubes matching up in diameter.
Just keep looking on C-list, and post a WTB...I will give up my key search words 23" dunlop tire, 12" ATV front rim; or the tire size. I've found more this way from people clearing barns. They have no idea what it goes to and list it incorrectly. I had a new condition one from an 86' Z for 45$+shipping complete rotor/hub/rim/good bearings...listed 23"Dunlop out of Detroit. Seller had no idea what it was for, was happy to deal and ship. I was happy to pay as the near mint tire was worth the 45 to me. Ebay will be a more expensive route as people think every thing is worth 40% off list.
