Looking for a pair of Morris mags for a GT550
Email me at gwailo7(REMOVE)@gmail.com

Or check out GS550/750 wheels. Same look (almost) but way cheaper. Rear wheels are available with drum and disk styles, so check ebay or your local wrecker.

I seen them, but not really what I'm looking for. Would Kawasaki LTD mags work if I can't find any Morris mags? I'm going for this look.

I had this bike and listed long back to sell here, If you are interested please contact to me, also take a look at the Bike.

That's a sweet cafe. I should know. I built it I found the Morris mags on eBay back around 2005. I paid $25 for the pair. Never seen any others. Actually I prefer the look of spokes, but the mags are a cut above in a lot of ways. No rust, no maintenance an definitely fit the package. The wheels are a bolt on in a sense. The front is for sure but not the rear - that is unless you get all the original garbage that came with them back in the 70's. I had that stuff and it looked terrible. Especially the caliper retention mess. I used mostly 1980 GS750 in the rear of this bike. The swing arm, brake stay, disc, caliper and master cylinder. I had to fabricate everything else including sprocket adapter, disc carrier and spacers.
Good luck in finding the wheels! I know there has to be some left out there somewhere. Remember, these were aftermarket in the 70's!

I was thinking "Lester" not "Morris".

Morris were usually magnesium and that tends to corrode over time. I have no experience with Morris Aluminum wheels though. They are being manufactured again in Europe but are not cheap. http://www.marvic.it/en/prodotto/vintage-morris/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

And Roland Sands does a CNC copy http://www.rolandsands.com/products/mor ... -black-ops" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

They do turn up from time to time though so keep looking.

Or go with GS or RD400/Seca wheels for a similar look at a whole lot less dollars.

never mind...

I know you built it and I've always liked it.
I'm going to do my 1972 GT like your bike with a set of 1982 GPZ1100 rims



(Pretty sure you used GPZ rims on your bike, not Morris Rims).




I have a set of Morris rims on my Kaw triple.

I don't think those are Morris wheels on that Kawi triple. They may be Lesters though.

My bad. You are correct, they are Lesters.

But they would look good on that Gt.
