I want to respoke it with all new, not sure where to get a set

 

Here

 

I mean. I don't want to replace jusy one now that they've been all unevely strained.

Wasn't sure if there was any specific brand or place to buy other than OEM.

Literally never had to replace motorcycle spokes

 

lacing a wheel is a bit of a trick if you've never done it before.
need to get or make a truing stand too.

 

Usually there are 2 different lengths of spokes on a rear rim. You could pick up a whole set or just a few of each size. Break them all loose first to see if you need spoke nipples first. I restrung a wheel once when I was 15 which was almost 20 years ago.

Here is a really good how to if you want to tackle it yourself. I need to true the rim on my dirt bike front soon.

Will have it done. Don't trust myself to do it right.

I appreciate the help fellas. Its just now dawning on me how badly this could've ended
