200, whoa. How does it handle? Does it feel stiffer in the turns?
Sure looks great!

you can get stainless or any color powder coated wheels here: http://www.buchananspokes.net/categories/british_style_steel_rims.aspYou will need to send them the offset, your rear hub so they will know how to tap the holes. They also have a full assortment of spokes, including stainless which is what I have. You can also have British Customs(Jason) in Gardena, Ca or South Bay Triumph(Matt) in Lomita, CA build one for you. They each have done a ton of them which cuts down on the mistake factor. Stainless brings its own problems. If you don't polish them often they start to fade. Chrome can rust. I have both and I prefer chrome. Front is stainless and rear is chrome. I have had mine for 3 years now. No rust. But I always seem to be polishing the stainless to keep shiny. Expect to pay about $500-600 for a new rear wheel fully assembled. You will need to do cut down front fork spacers or buy an Progressive front fork kit to level the bike so it handles correct. If you do the rear you will want to do the front. here is what mine looks like:

what size are your rims/tires? I have aluminum rims, how much are the hubs? How much are the aluminum rims worth off of my 04 speedmaster if I were to sell them?
