I had bead leaks on my motorcycle , cured by sanding all the

rust flakes or whatever on the tire itself , that's gotta be cleaned
up too .

My Royal Enfield/Indian motorcyle has aluminum rims. Each one has a
hairline crack in the side rim. Any fix for these? Can I tig them or
should I replace them? I dont think they were the original rims from
1960

I think they can be TIGged , but you will want to preheat them (take the
bearings out first ...). See Ernies responses to my post in SEJW about when
I fubarred the motorcycle part - I think the post was titled "Part Came
Back" . Vee the crack , etc .
