Try using a search engine like "Seartempest " or something like that if your not already other than just e bay ??

As stated these are getting tough to find you may have to buy a pair and sell one off ..
Good luck ..

Thanks for the link. I sent them an email on their website contact and i also called twice with no answer. I did read up on their yelp reviews and it didn't sound like a place I would want to send money to. Maybe if I lived there it would be different and I could pick them up.


I did realize something. The 18" front is 2.5" wide so then I would have to spend another 4 years looking for a 3" wide rear instead of the 2.15" one I have now.

Could you use one that was made for a Honda? If so I have one.
It is a 5 hole pattern. They are through holes with no thread. Honda used 5 very long bolts that held both rotors to the wheel. Straight as an arrow. Nice thing is that it is a late production run and is set up to be tubeless. Other than a screwdriver ham fisted tire change by the previous owner it is nice. I have given up on my quest for a 3.00x18 rear LESTER for my Honda CB750F 78 model.
Let me know.

I don't think it will. Even the one for the KH needs some machine work to fit correctly.
