It would be for the 1975 R90/6. Your R65 Hub may be a little too low a ratio.justoneoftheguys wrote: O.K. - for which bike?
I sold 2 very true rear wheels and one hub just a couple of weeks ago. None left.bbelk wrote:My rear hub splines to the wheel are getting real pointy. Do you have a rear hub with good splines and do I need a matching wheel hub?

Hmmm...you're a successful businessman type, you know what the stuff is worth yet you're selling for a quarter of that.Duane Ausherman wrote:I sold 2 very true rear wheels and one hub just a couple of weeks ago.

The stacks were removed, cleaned, inspected, bearing replaced as needed, lapped square, lubed up and installed.
The complete wheels brought $60-$70 and the hub only $25.
Most of my parts should have been bought just as spares. I still have a super good low mileage gear set for a /2 transmission. This is the best set that I ever removed in that the slider dogs match up very well. All 6 are taking power and that is unusual. I put a reserve of $500 and eBay messed it up and didn't register the reserve. Fortunately I had put it in my listing description. The sale only got bid up to $122 and I canceled the sale. The buyer knew me and understood what happened, so he didn't give negative feedback. EBay messed up a listing a few years ago and nearly the same thing happened. They aren't perfect.
I think that at this stage of Duane's life he is realising that money isn't everything, and that socialised medicine done properly, is a good thing.PITAPan wrote:Hmmm...you're a successful businessman type, you know what the stuff is worth yet you're selling for a quarter of that.Duane Ausherman wrote:I sold 2 very true rear wheels and one hub just a couple of weeks ago.

What's wrong w/ this pic?
Just sayin', y'know.
You set the least you'll take. But the way the ebay system works, if you really want $250 for a wheel genuinely worth that, you pay a bunch more for the listing, on top of the greater fee you pay when the item sells. You don't get the money and the buyer don't get the good deal. Solution: don't use eBay.Duane Ausherman wrote:"I think that at this stage of Duane's life he is realising that money isn't everything, and that socialised medicine done properly, is a good thing."
I don't set the price, bidding does that for me.
I hope to tell you exactly how wonderful Obama care is working out.
