I'd do it in a heartbeat if he weren't so far away and my rims weren't showing that they have in fact been ridden in every type of weather. The one drawback to riding year round things get crusty. dam road salt!

I live in KY. Richmond, KY. I might would entertain some trade out. Maybe just the wheels. I have an 05 C50.

Don't think the wheels will fit on C50 forks the axle arrangement is different. M50 wheels need to go onto M50 forks as I understand it.

If anyone is interested in swapping let me know. I'd prefer within driving distance so parts can be inspected for both parties. I know its a long shot but I figured I'd give it a shot. I'm also lookin to swap out the rear fender and tank/speedo if anyone intersted in that as well as front fender.
One last seriously long shot is the engine Chrome for.my black parts. Just let me know if your interested in any/all. Lookin forward to hearing from someone.

By the way I'm from Mayfield Kentucky

also my bike is a 2005 model with 5800 miles in case someone would like to know

If you lived in here in Cali, I would swap bike for bike...

Dang, I really don't know if I want to do a whole front end swap. That would be forks, tree, and wheels??? what about the rear???

There was a fella over at IA forum that did the wheel swap...was a pain, required mix and match parts, and a custom spacer...not 100% but I think the front had to be installed backwards because the rotor is opposite side of the Vol./C50. I'll have to double check that one. From what I can find for parts compatibility we have the same major components from '05 on.

From what I'm told it is a pain without swapping forks hence why I prefer getting forks as well. But the rear wheel will bolt right on if someone wanted to do a rear wheel swap only is be interested because that's a start in the direction I'm looking to go also a rear fender swap. Basically if you guys just want to swap a particular part let me know and we could probably ship for individual parts just think that wheels and forks would be expensive as heck.

Yeah, That's what I was getting at. Took a lot of homework to refresh the ol brainbox, it was earlier model M50 that had the rotor on the drive side.

Actually you might be surprised i had a fender shipped for 20. and have had wheels shipped for little more.

Well if there is some interest let me know as I'm about to buy a rear fender on eBay this comin Thursday and I've already bought the inner fender so before I spend more money when I could just swap and be able to save some money hit me up guys
