    Help : 18" Alloys on 350 STD 1980 model.

    Hi,

    I thought of putting tubeless tires on my Bullet 350 (1980) which is currently having 19" spokes. Can I put the alloys from the Karizma or any such bike ? If so then what are changes that I will have to do ??

    Thanks
    Shree

        Alloys on a BULL? that too a collector's BULL? Very bad idea. Please don't contribute to the "Wacky Mod's thread"

          ^^naa, alloys always look good on a bullet,
          about a collectors bullet , i would rather like to see retro styled spokes(one side with long and one side with short wires).it will be an effort , but again karizmas alloys with fatter tyres will be a treat to eyes...
          ps.i m too lazy still i will try to find something like a pic....

            Not keen on the Rado alloys.

            Not sure of going ahead but want to keep the tyre size to 17 or 18" tubeless so alloys needed

            Thanks..
            Can u pls shed some light on how to proceed with the mod as the old Bulls have breaks on LHS but ZMA alloys will accommodate in RHS. Also for the Sprocket hub

            Guess lots of mods required and I am sure Dad won't agree if handling is affected

              Shreeni,

              Stick to the spoke rims. I know why you want to change to alloys. I mean the advantage of being able to use tubeless tires. But somehow i cant digest alloys with the classic bullet. Keep it retro IMO

                  stick to spokes bcz the rear drum of rd is very big none of mag wheels drum close to it so u lost braking efficiency.

                      Are these tyres tubeless?
