IS THIS RIM SAVABLE

[mattmf01]

Hey everyone. I have a 21 in spoke rim for my CB750 project bike but it is full of rust on the spokes. Does anyone know how to save it or do i need to look for a new one?

     HEy Matt,
   Let say your doing 85m.p.h. down the interstate,ya wont to think

                              "is 1 of my spokes going to break"
 
                    Bro thats not the filling of freedom ya get riding ,
            Get new spokes and relace yourself and have trued by a pro.

              Ya might wont to learn a bit about running a 21" on front ,
                            find how it reacts to turns and stops.
                    I didn't believe so check on neighbor kids bicycle
                                         (ole Indian trick)

   Had a 1977 KZ 750 B was my parts bike(had 2, one red parts bike 1 blue runner) ran better then my daily runner,took it out 1 day just short fast ride poped 3 spokes 2 next to each other the other across them,could hear them hiting after 1 stop,GOT OFF pushed to side of country road(lil town )road in 1st & 2nd gear all the way home ,2 more had busted,

          IF I HADN"T stoped at stop sign ,Still thinking of doing 85 down interstate

I would say is it realy bad are not. If not you could just use Combo Luster Lace to clean them. If it is bad I would use http://www.buchananspokes.net/categories/custom_spoke_sets.asp and get stainless spokes.



You don't want anything like what Piute said to happen.
