Single 7-Spoke Cast Aluminum 16 Inch Motorcycle Wheel - A single cast aluminum motorcycle wheel featuring a seven-spoke design with black painted recesses and polished aluminum faces and rim. The hub is configured with a five-bolt mounting pattern for a brake rotor or sprocket. The casting includes several integral markings. A stylized mark consisting of the letters JWL, representing the Japanese Light Alloy Wheel safety standard, is cast into the hub area. The spoke cavities contain cast-in alphanumeric characters reading MT, 1 6 x 3 . 0 0, and DOT. The wheel is designed to accommodate a 16-inch tire. Outer diameter: 17 1/2 inches (measured across the rim flange) Outer width: 3 1/2 inches (measured across the rim flange). The wheel shows significant signs of age and use. Heavy surface oxidation and pitting are visible across all polished aluminum surfaces including the rim and spoke edges (images 1, 2). The black painted recessed areas show fading, chips, and a buildup of road grime (image 2). One of the five mounting holes on the hub appears to contain a broken stud or significant debris (image 4). The central wheel bearings are present but exhibit heavy grease and dirt buildup; their mechanical condition is unverified and they may require replacement (images 3, 4). Minor nicks and abrasions consistent with tire changes are visible along the outer rim edges (image 6).
