Hey folks,
I am in a rebuild of my 85 R80RT and looking at the wear on my rear wheel's brake cylinder. I am curious what the factory diameter on these wheels is. Mine is currently measuring at just shy of 201mm which converted gives me .007" of remaining wear given the 7.92 max diameter. As a rider, I am never heavy on the rear brake, but don't have enough experience with these to know what to expect from so little remaining. Other than wear, the wheel is in great shape for 163K miles.
Thanks!
Bill
