I've been searching but cant find a direct answer so I apologise if this has been covered already but... I know the Raider front wheel is the same size as the Stryker and I saw some aftermarket wheels on ebay for the Raider...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Custom-Motorcycle-Wheels-wheel-rim-for-YAMAHA-RAIDER-S-Metric-Cruiser-NEW-/110749926409?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item19c935c409&vxp=mtr

I'm wondering if these would be a direct fit. Also wondering from the pic how the rotor will mount since I think it bolts straight to the stock wheel and I see no threaded holes on this one. I know the raider has two rotors and the Stryker one, but figure I could work around that. Anyone ever bought a rim like this?
Thanks for the help.

Yeah I sent them a message. No response yet. Will keep you posted. The way I was thinking was if the rims are the same size and carry the same size bearing, then the only difference would be the brake mounting setup. On the one hand the raider has two rotors and the Stryker one which should mean I would have a set of exposed bolts on the other side which I could just cap or tidy up etc. So got my fingers crossed.

cbrmatt at Performance Edge tried this over a year ago, but the thread crawled into a hole and died. I recal reading on the Raider forum that they are indeed interchangeable.

Did I read that right?!? A Metz 300 on a Raider rear rim will fit the Stryker? That would be AWESOME!

They put the 300 on a 18 X 10.5 rim

If you open the above link and scroll down you'll see what they did, which included a new swing arm along with a few other modifications.

Thanks yeah I saw that earlier but havent seen any response or follow up so thought I would ask again. Seems then that the rim should fit. I'm still trying to get hold of the company to see if I can get an actual photo of one since the rim in the listing looks like a generic type.

Oopse... I re-read it. 260 Metz on the Raider Rim fits with no issues.

Stock Stryker and Stock Raider Rims are 7.5". Performance Machine Wheels are 8.0". CBRMatt at performance Edge takes the stock wheel and makes it 8.5" which will accept the 260 Metz.
