    little help please front rim 350X

    Ok guys here it is, the other day I went to the local honda shop/dealership trying to get a price on a front rim for the 350X. The service manager/so called head mech looked at me like I was stupid, then proceeded to tell me that honda never put a 350cc in a trike. I was like "yeah OK" come look in the back of my truck. Anyway the parts guy said he could order me one for $400.00 + about $50.00 shipping. Anybody know where I can pick one up for considerably less ? (other than ebay) Is it the same size as the 250R or 200X ? Thanx in advance

    Same size as 85-86 250R and 86-87 200X. But the 250R is gold.

    What year 350X do you have? If it's an 86 with the cast insert, they are a little harder to find. Post in our classifieds that you need one and someone will have you one in less than a day!

    I believe Douglas still makes a normal 11inch sized front rim also. http://www.douglaswheel.com/

    I bet a lot of us have went into a Honda shop and had somebody look at ya funny when you say ATC 350X.... when you get some punk workin there that thinks all Honda ever made was a 300EX , 400EX and a 450R. Anyway, there's any array of wheels out there way cheaper than $450.00.. that's insane!!

    How could you possibly work in a Honda Shop and not know about the legendary 350X???? Man that is messed up! That's like going to the butcher shop and him saying that he has never heard of lamb chops. I simply can not believe the incompetance of some people.
