In some motorcycles, a wheel in which a rim and a hub are connected by a plurality of spokes is integrally cast from a light alloy by die casting or the like. In that case, in order to reduce the weight, a hollow core is used to form the inside. However, since the hub is provided with the axle cylinder portion in the center to enhance the rigidity, the sand of the core that forms the hollow portion on the outside of the hub and the inside of the spoke is taken out by providing a small hole. It takes time and labor to remove the sand, and the production is troublesome and the cost is high. See, for example, JP-A-61-292754.
