Morning Folks,
I don’t have my yellow hd8 here so I can’t compare the wheel halves with the ones with the solid tyre. Of course one difference would be the valve hole in the pneumatic wheels.
I’ve got 4 red machines and only two have the original wheels. The solid tyres on one of the machines with original wheels are just about stuffed too. I’ve long since resigned myself to having non-original wheels on the little g50 machine when I finally get it going. Sigh!
Cheers,
P.S. I guess I should clarify, then I say ‘solid’ tyres, I think they are in fact hollow and I think I recall early sales material referring to them as ‘semi-pneumatic’.
