Smokin', I bent the front rim on my R6 years back and had it repaired by MC Wheel. It was the factory aluminum rim, I don't know if they can fix yours, but its worth a shot. Call them at 888-629-4335.

The wheel is going out for repairs first thing this tuesday.......1969ca said his is paying for repairs and he also needs to pay shipping cost and repower coating after the repairs...

I'm not happy because i'm still stuck with wheels that are not made to fit my bike and i'm not putting on a repaired wheel and go 160 MPH at the track ..

Anyone want to buy a zx12 repaired Marvic penta 2 wheel and a Busa rear wheel ??? Make me an offer ..

Smokin, can't see you really selling the wheels on this site, as everyone knows about it - bad vibes, you know what i mean.
Might be better off selling the gear in the local mags, trading post etc.

If you're currently talking to this 1969ca, what stops you asking for a full refund? Afterall he's 'mislead' you - right?

As we see now, he's now offering to 'compensate' you half way.

You paid a lot of money, and didn't get what you thought you would get. I feel for you man, but why can't you get a refund from this guy? Better to pay the p&p back to him and take that loss.

Anyway, hope it works out for you.

1969ca probably already spent the money... and can't return it..., or needed the cash and already paid some bills with it...

I have tried to do just that ...He will not send me my money back .. I'm stuck with sending the wheel out for repair and hope he picks up the bill like he said he would ..
It doesn't matter where i try to sell the wheels because i will be honest about the repair of the bent wheel .. I can't and will not do to someone else what he did to me ...

I have sent the wheel out UPS for the repairs .. Tracking number 1Z2021W70386815854
He needs to send me the shipping cost of 17.27 he will also have to pay for the wheel to be repowder coated after the repairs are made ...

This deal sucks for sure but for now it's all i can get out of this guy ...I hope he lives up to his end of this deal ..
