Help Identifying these Mags??

Hi Matt, I have a virgin bore 400 - 4 bolt main small block sitting. Have a set of Aluminum heads also.

The more I searched out those Morris Mags? This front one is for H1, H2, Z1! Has to be rarer than hens teeth or frog hair! It is an adaptor for a machined disc. Disc is exact diameter, And the 9 rivet holes are the same! This rim was made for H-D? The countersunk flatheads are American 5/16" SAE threads. Someone years ago? Had it mounted on a single disc Z1? I ever have time? I'll try mounting it.

Apparently, Morris company got played by H-D in a quite similar fashion to how Kawasaki did them...use the Morris wheels for initial bikes until their own manufactured version is developed.  So...only the one year kz900ltd has Morris made castings and then all Kaws had Enkei made in Japan wheels that looked just like the Morris after that.  Harley did the same thing, one year only of Sportsters with Morris cast wheels, and then after that Harley made them themselves (or at least, had H-D cast in)  I wonder what the real story is here?  I am pretty sure Lester's were patented.

Marty, if we can figure out the logistics I’d be interested in the SBC parts. 

Does the front have the Morris logo? What a rare find. 

Hello, I sold front 19" wheel.
Now I have the rear listed on ebay.
What a heavy complete wheel! 46# pounds as is looks with tire, steel sprocket, all steel disc brake.
Can be had for $200 bucks.
I have ad also for the Harleys Guys. I can strip the Kaw stuff and sell the rim blank as a universal wheel.
Just showing it off cleaned up.

Including an old school Pirelli Phantom tire!     Nice! I used them in "the olden days!"
