Yo Wolf!
Sure there are billet wheels! Moore and Rusty Jake both just put some on their rides. The company is in Texas, I believe it's called Cruiser Concepts. They ain't cheap though! You gotta be serious about billet wheels - I believe a set will cost you around $1600 - $1800. I'm not sure of the web address, but try http://www.cruiseconcepts.biz If that don't work, either google them or PM Rusty or Moore.

it's www.cruiseconcepts.biz
as for customdreamcycles....well, that's who I dealt with but in reality they buy their wheels from Ronnie at cruise concepts. Best to cut out the middle man and deal direct. Not saying that Eduardo isn't good to deal with. The freight coming out of Puerto Rico is air only. So keep that in mind as well as paying a little more for a middle man.
They don't come cheap, even buying direct.

Deal direct with Ronnie at cruise concepts in texas. That's who makes the wheels for dreamcycles in PR. You'll save yourself a lot of money getting them here state side. They also make the wheels for motor trike. I just met Ronnie and some of the guy's from cruise concepts in daytona this past week and hung out with them for a few day's. They are real great guy's. Check them out at http://www.cruiseconcepts.biz Check out my bike at http://www.hellrisercustoms.com/moore6085

Jake, have you made a decision on your wheel cover?

I'll email the guy again. He said he was interested, but then again he's interested in just about everything I've taken off my bike.
I'll let you know as soon as he gets back to me. It's off the bike and packaged up. I even found the spare screw and grommet that came with it. I can't believe that considering I can't find a wrench two seconds after I put it down.

I emailed him this morning. He lives about 35 minutes from me, but I can't get ahold of him other then online.
As soon as her replies I'll let you know one way or the other.
About loosing tools, I can't believe how many times I lost something today.....it all started with the electrical tape and went downhill from there, every tool I put down today grew legs and took off. But I got the wires pulled through the bars finally! It's a pain in the ass to do, but well worth the effort.
When you put FFslady's wires under the tank, where'd you put them all so they were tucked away neatly??? On top of the frame or to the side? I've got the wires under there now, just don't like where they are.

There was a space under the main frame rail that they all fit in nice and neat. Right behind the steering head.

AirportFF,
Just got an email from the guy. He said he's going to take them. If that changes and you still haven't found a set, I'd give you first option on them.
Sorry for making you wait so long, I just wanted to give him a chance to respond seeing he asked about them first.

No problem, I'm not even shopping around for them. Figure if I could get a set on here, great, but with the back order issues on them we can wait.
But, if the deal falls through let me know.

you can adapt any wheel available for a HD to fit your Spirit. Here is a link to a guy that makes adapters.http://www.weirdharoldscoolparts.com/
