Silly rim question

If I were to replace a rim, is it OK to re-use the spokes? It appears they are S/S and in good visual condition or is it better to replace all since it's all apart? Nice looking wheels BTW.

More fuel

Baja Designs makes a auxiliary tank that replaces the left side panel. Holds about 1.5 gal. if I remember right. Had one on my 380. You would have to see if it will fit the 200. Have fun.
