    Default Custom wheel for VN900 Custom

    Greetings all, new to the thread. Have visited quite often as many of you are looking for the same as I, a rear wheel for the VN900 custom to fit a 210 to 240 tire and match the front 21". In my personnal searches I have found few who make wheels for this model and none to match the front 21". I subscribed to V-TWIN mag a few months ago and found an advertising for DNA specialties where they have a wheel named ENVY I attached a scan of the page, this wheel is a perfect match for the front but as many manufaturers they are only available for HD. I called and asked if they were ever going to make this wheel availble for import cruisers, he said NO as the demand is not there and I was the first to call and ask for this wheel. My suggestion to all vn900 owners is to email these guys, if you are interested, for this wheel to be made and maybe we can persuade them to make this happen. Let me know what you guys think. Their site DNA Specialty INC

    I don't think its a perfect match but it is pretty darn close. I would consider something like this. But before I call or send them a email how much are we talking about? If over 1k then it may not be worth it.

    i like the solid rear wheel.
    If i was going to get a custom wheel, it would be for the front. It's all well and good having a 900 Custom which has completely different mirrors/pipes/intake etc. to other 900 Customs, but with the large front wheel being the same on them all, it makes it hard to stand out and be different.

    I intend on getting a custom front at some point. It's another cost to add to the list.

    Good luck with finding a matching rear though! Keep us updated.
