Hi guys
I'm after a rim for a 72 H2
I'm UK based, but have an address to ship to in the UK
I'll buy a complete wheel if needed
Thanks

Where the valve comes through the rim will be something like this

The 5D means May 1975 and the 303 means H2/H1 becuse they both share the same front wheel, however the H1 rear is stamped 305 and the H2 is stamped 303

First stamp is the manufacturer Takasago, then the rim size, then a number, then a letter, then 3 numbers.

The number after the rim size is the year the rim was made. 2, 3, 4, 5 etc....197(2) 7(3) etc.

The letter denotes the month of manufacture.....A-L. Jan- Dec.

The last 3 numbers tell you if the rim is H1 or H2 or other model. The H1's are 305 rear, H2 is 303, S3 front is 308, S3 rear 307.

S1/2=303 fnt
S1/2=307 rr
S3=308 fnt
S3=307 rr
H1=305 rr
H1/H2=303 fnt
H2=303 rr
KH250=308
