Where to buy polished front wheel for 83/84 ATC 250R?
I've been fixing up my 1983 250r, and I'm looking for a new polished front wheel to match the new polished rears I have installed. Any help appreciated if you guys can point me in the right direction!
So far I have replaced the front and rear brake pads, cleaners And lubed sliders, all hardware, flushed all brake fluid and bled, new rear brake reservoir, new front fender, changed case oil, new hand grips, new rear wheels, cleaned and oiled K&N filter, repainted pipe with high heat black, new pipe springs, etc.
I still need to order a new chain slider/ guide, new front wheel, and new handlebars...
Another question would also be, what handlebars would replace mind around the same style, I see a few bars online from renthal, but no one lists the 250r. Should I order them for a raptor quad or something?

I have Pro Taper's on my 82.
It has the middle brace and doesn't have quite as far of a bend back.
I really like them. I will post pictures later in the week for you to see.
Yeah, it would be nice to have your cross brace for a foam pad, and would like to have basically the same Height, I don't care much as far as the bend back go, I just need to replace mine that are bent from previous owner crash. Do I get a particular part #? A friend of mine said to just order them for a trx250r or a banshee or raptor, but I'd assume small differences between all these different models? Also saw on here years ago, that a polished Douglas or itp brand wheel was being sold for the front of these ATC'S? Also what size is my stock front Wheel? Sorry I'm new to working on these but I am an automotive technician...

I have Douglas polished rear wheels on mine, and mine has a 200X front end and has a front polished wheel. Idk if the front wheel the 200X would bolt on or not.
The wheel is an 11 Inch.
The handlebars I have do have the cross brace with the foam aswell.
Renthal and or Pro Taper has a diagram that shows you how to measure your bars for height, width, etc to find a fit.
I'll look into on mine and see if I can turn something up for you.
Thank you, I really appreciate it. The rear wheels I have on mine are "STI" I've never heard of them but the shop I went to had them on the shelf and I had just snapped one of my rear stock gold wheels and they were having trouble holding air too..
