12-23-2021 Package of parts finally arrived! yay! it's been about a month since my bike broke and i haven't been able to use it. i spent a week trying to find parts locally and even online USA for it without luck. Anyway i was able to order parts from Japan and from the time i placed my order to it's arrival was about 3 weeks. This video explains the difference between the Magician spoke parts and the XG250 Tricker parts. but here are some dimensions....
part lengths seem to be exact as needed for repair
spoke wire diameter Magician 3.43mm vs Tricker 3.18mm
spoke thread pattern/pitch Magician .70mm vs Tricker .65mm (just a guess)
spoke Head Magician 6.5mm vs Tricker 6.4mm
spoke Nipple Head Magician 9.46mm vs Tricker 10.05mm
spoke Nipple over all length Magician 16.7mm vs Tricker 19.25mm
spoke angle (it is bent to fit wheel hub) Magician 17degrees vs Tricker 15degrees
2008 was the Tricker year i chose for parts

most web sites wanted anywhere from $50 to $75 for delivery
Impex Japan had an ESTIMATED quote of $20, actual price depends on package weight mine turned out to be under $27

i have not ordered anything from the other sources so BUYER BEWARE !

Impex Japan
1. first off i had trouble getting together a parts order list, what fixed that was setting up an account with them so that should be first

2. once you do get an order list you will then need to pay for the parts (they make you pay for shipping once they know the actual weight of package)

3. they will email you status of your order, with indicators of
awaiting payment, cancelled, suspended, processing, in stock, awaiting shipment, shipped

4. check back every now or then and look for package status

5. when it reaches "awaiting shipment" status, they require payment of shipping

6. once it ships they will email you with tracking number and you will have to click the tracking number to get updates

7. last email they will send you is when the package is delivered
