crack in rim
Hola
I'm traveling on a Yamaha Ténéré Xt660Z from Fireland to Alaska and on the way through beautiful Peru i cought a flat tire together with a crack in the front rim yesterday.
It happened in the middle of nowhere, luckily i made it to a small town called Caylloma, now considering my options.
Can someone recommend a Motorbikeshop in Arequipa/Peru to weld or buy a new rim? Dimensions 1.85 x 21 or 2.15 x 21
(knowing about the problems welding a rim, i would definitely prefer to have a new/or used one without cracks. especially in the front..)
And is drilling a hole at the end of the crack really a good idea to prevent the crack from spreading?
thankfull for every tipp,
cheers, Raphael!
