Good Morning BSA, I raced an Aermacchi on the Isle of Man for four years and never had a problem with rear wheel spokes breaking or coming loose. Your thread intrigues me!!!

Rear wheel problems are not unheard of. My friend had a 350 Aermacchi which use to loosen the rear wheel bearings in the hub which meant a loctite bearing fit job every day. The 250 rear hub cracked nearly all the way around between the spoke holes. I think the 250 broke down with an ignition problem around about the 11th......
