Front wheel replacement

Hello to everyone,

I've been facing a problem with the way my nc35 would come into a stop after braking. Had a shake feel from my front brakes.

I recently replaced my tyres and during this prĂ²cedure i asked the tyre shop to mesure my front wheel for straightness, which they did.

Long story short, one of my rotors had a mimor warpage and the rim, in some part of its life was damaged and had a low cost repair treatment leaving a permanent damage to the rim.

The tyre shop sent the rim to a machine shop but they could not do much.

My question is : i want to replace my front wheel but after a search i found out that nc29 and nc35 have different part numbers. Different part numbers tell me that even if they look exactly the same, at some point they must differ.

if i do not come up to a good condition nc35 front wheel, do i have other options?

Thanks

NC30, NC23 (3 spoke) & NC29 front wheels are a straight swap. I'm fairly certain that later VFR750 front wheels fit as well and probably VTR1000 Firestorm (someone else would need to confirm).

For VTR1000F substitute '95-'98 CBR600F, the former having only three spokes, but would fit.

Ciao,
