I think this one would fit the build nicely checked all the boxes save the Swanee fairing.

This would be the perfect bike as long as it is less than 550 lbs with a seat height of 29". I really wanted something like this when I bought my Mandello. The Mandello was a great bike but just didn't work well for me. My '26 V7 is about as good as it's going to get, at least for me.

It sounds to me like he's already found the Eldo wheel and just wanted to know if it will work or not. Short answer is it will. it's the same wheel except for the bearing carriers.

The 1000SP had cast alloy wheels, not spoked ones.

It might look weird, but I assume it would work, since the hub width is the same.

     1971-1974 V7 Sport. An absolute joy on the "Super Slab", back country roads, twistys and switch backs of the eastern US mountains. After riding many different bikes in Asia, Europe, and US, the Sport was the ultimate bike for me.

I'm 80. Soon enough I won't be able to lift any of them.

But I already have all the stuff to make this one and it seldom requires lifting.

That could be the most "perfect" Ural ever!

It would probably be easier to find another Tonti front wheel than the Eldorado disc wheel.  It was only made for 1 year.  Any convert, G5, T or T3 wheel would work.  SP as well.

It sounds to me like he's already found the Eldo wheel and just wanted to know if it will work or not. Short answer is it will. it's the same wheel except for the bearing carriers.
