Hey guys I'm so deflated (pun intended), I'm in need of a front wheel for a 1290. I had my wheels powder coated, the day I got them back from the powder coaters (11 days later) my girlfriend ran over my front wheel in the garage breaking it. I got on line and ordered another front wheel that initially was on backorder until November 27th(that was killing me with this gorgeous weather) and found out today that the back order was extended to Dec 23rd! So with my head hanging low, I'm asking if anyone on here has maybe gone with carbon fiber/magnesium wheels and have their stock front wheel sitting around they would like to sell? Of course I would want a wheel that hasn't seen damage. Well if anyone can lift my spirits, please pm me

I'll pass that along:) I can say, she actually is a pretty good driver. It was just that she decided to leave the house when she originally wasn't going anywhere because she had to finish the work she was doing. Well, the way my friends truck was parked in the drive, she had to do a bit of maneuvering in the garage so she could get out. My friend and I were only gone for a few minutes to pick up lunch. She was going to get a new ink cartridge for the printer which just ran out to finish the work she was doing. So an empty ink cartridge cost me a new front wheel (which needs to be powder coated) and riding in my favorite time of year and plowing through a couple months of my warranty. That part really sucks too, considering my bike has been in 5 times in two and a half months for warranty work. I ride a lot (when I have a bike that works) and was hoping that all the warranty issues would show themselves and get taken care of with all the riding I do before warranty is over.
