My 2009 Revamp and Build

Some have good luck under the tank and some have fueling issues from heat. We upgraded and moved mine to the tail.

Great new! The beast is alive! I completely revamped the fuel system. All the lines have been replaced with fuel injection high psi lines. In spots where there was the potential to maybe think about kinking I adjusted it and put bracing on the line so I could not. Somehow or another was three fuel filters. Those are all gone now. She maintains 40 to 45 psi a fuel pressure at all times. She absolutely runs great now.
I also got some great news today. My rims are on the way. They are supposed to be here Wednesday next week. I have the new tires already in the garage. I’ll be calling around to have them professionally mounted and installed on the bike.
The last thing on my checklist to do is to repair the plastic that gasoline contacted too much. It’s going to require a little touchup to blend in. Other than that this machine is golden I’m thrilled.

Hi
That is realy realy great news. Go have lots of fun. Stay safe doing it.
 
What is the weight of those compared to a carbon fiber wheel?

I hit the web sites:

Core Moto Fully Assembled Apex-6 wheel Weights.

13+ Hayabusa Front: 7.79 LBS
13+ Hayabusa Rear: 11.76 LBS
=19.55 lbs


On the BST site I chose the Diamond Tek 5-spoke:

BST Diamond TEK Rear Wheel Complete assembly: 4.02 kg 8.9 lb
BST Diamond TEK Front Wheel Complete assembly: 2.5 kg 5.5 lb
= 14.4 lb
 
Probably more but I've seen a pile of carbon fiber wheels get destroyed on street riding, I'd only run them on a pure race bike and no one will change my mind lol.
This is exactly why i did not run with BST. I love love em but 3 or 4 lbs wasnt worth the potential risk. Total shipped weight to my door including the big box bearing etc was 22.3 lbs. substantial weight loss compared to stock i think.
