Lucky or Unfortunate...IDK

So, today I was doing the usually pre-season inspection. As I was checking the spokes on the rear wheel I hear a pop. And what do you know, the spoke was broken. I was looking at these spokes, but I don't know if they will fit. I'm not too sure what the diameters are but everything else looks fine. I do know the ones from aliexpress will fit, but the shipping time is a little long. Anyways I guess I'm lucky I found the broken spoke now rather than while I was riding.

Spokes are 4mm dia. x 162mm long.

If you want to take a chance on 160mm long they might work. Only 2mm shorter. Measure the stock spoke to verify.

Iwould recommend that you go up one size thicker spoke. The standard spoke is marginal for American style riding...ARH

Cool, thank you both. I'm just going to order the ones from aliexpress. Now I guess I finally have time to mod the exhaust and add the oil cooler I been needing to add.
