Bent a rim on a pothole in DC last Fall and I really miss riding.  Looking for replacement wheels (that don't cost an arm and a leg new), I'm having trouble finding one that fits exactly my model year.

There's a listing on eBay for a 2003 Ducati 900 SS at http://www.ebay.com/itm/170771314116?item=170771314116&viewitem=&sspagename=ADME:X:RTQ:MOTORS:1123&vxp=mtr - the seller says it fits my bike and is straight.

Any thoughts on this wheel?  Or any other options?  Thanks!

looks like a front wheel to me and yeah that wheel will fit to the best of my knowledge. it has the 6 bolt brake rotor holes and the larger axle bearings (20mm).

Ok cool so if I go ahead and buy this I shouldn't need anything else, right?  They'll just move my tire and everything else over onto the replacement rim?

Thanks guys!

Well damn, it just sold after being re-listed several times without a bite.  Maybe someone saw my posting here and snagged it. :(

Anyone have a wheel to fit my 2007 695 for sale?

You need a 3.50" x 17 wheel, with 6-bolt rotor attachment, and 25mm ID bearings.

Virtually all Ducatis '02-'05 will have that wheel.

If I hit a pothole hard enough to bend the rim, I'd fit a new tire.

From the pictures, I'd say all of those rims would fit, but seem a bit expensive for rashed/dinged rims.

The rim is not so much bent as cracked!

Yeah it does, doesn't it?  Having trouble finding anything else though at the moment... :(
