The design of a motorcycle wheel contains several complexes and attempt has been made to meet therequirements of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).By using UNIGRAPHICS (NX 7.5), it involves with the drawingrequirements and design of a motorcycle wheel. The design in 6 degree of freedom (DOF) for characteristics and durabilityhas been developed. After designing of wheel, the material should be selected and to go through several analysis test onANSYS software. By applying different loads in existing Aluminium alloy wheel and analyze the stresses, the material hasbeen changed from Aluminium alloy to Polyether-ether ketone, Polyether-ether ketone with 30% glass fibre, PEEK90HMF20and PEEK90HMF40 for the study. In the same design the materials has been changed one by one and applying differentloads, and analyze the stresses. It is concluded that the existing design is not suitable for plastic material. Plastic materialwill deform at a maximum load of 2452.5N (250Kg). So change the design and the materials and analyze the stresses andfinally conclude that Aluminium alloy can be replaced by plastic material.
