Hey all, Some of you may know me, i recently started up a company called Codex Motorsports, after much deliberation about a name. I deal in WSBK Ducati parts mainly from the start of the Panigale era. Anyway, I have some damaged wheels that are no use for riding any more, they have come direct from the chaz and melandri bikes from last year. They are not visibly damaged other than a scuff. They are rear wheels and I'm considering making some coffee tables out of them or if someone has another idea, i'm sure i can do that too! I had considered a clock The wheels themselves are very expensive but obviously no use to anyone anymore. They will feature a glass top with the official number from either rider relative to the wheel. I am considering auctioning them on the dreaded ebay, or seeing if there was any interest here before i start ordering the glass and figuring out how it will all work. I have a figure id like to get in return for them which would be around £350-400 Ive attached a photo of the wheels the rear in this photo is from Davis bike Cheers Ben
Could be interested in one of these once done. I do like a talking point in a room. Keep us posted with progress and photo's
No problem. I’m going to enquire about glass tomorrow and probably use 2 wheel nuts to hold it on with a tapped shaft going through the spindle hole of the wheel. Cheers Ben
I did some with 1968 replica F1 wheels - new period tyres fitted too and the Glass just sits on the tyres - you need tyres and disks but would make them pricey unless you skimmed used discs...
Hi mate. Just waiting on the glass. If glass isn’t wanted I could use Perspex I’m hoping to find some damaged rear axles to use to keep it all factory. If not I’ll have to make some plates and spindles or it’s going to get too expensive. I have 6 rears and 2 fronts available. Drop Me a message Cheers Ben
Maybe a certificate of authenticity with the riders number, season year and even a signature if poss, would be a cool addition! Oh...... I'm interested in seeing these once done! Nice one
Number I can do. Season is engraved on the wheels as they have a mileage limit. Authenticity I can provide myself as this is my company. As for a signature that may be tricky. I will have the ready next week hopefully but there are a few options so Please message me if interested Cheers Ben
