Wheels

[karnage]

What do you guys think of these Carrozzeria wheels??They are really light and come complete with bearings,chrome cush drive, spacers and carriers.Price is right with a high gloss polish that is powdercoated.Thinking of these for a x-mas present to myself if I can save up that much by then.

Cant see them.They are very nice and much lighter than chromed billet wheels which is what I like.Less weight not more.

who knows the weight of stock wheels, and these aftermarket ones. and what they cost. busa's could stand to lose a few lbs...

 

[frisbee]

Very Nice!!!!

The front is like 7 lbs and the rear is 13 lbs I think.When you chrome the stock ones they get heavy and if you buy chrome billets, they are even heavier from what I am told.I really like these wheels.Hurry up x-mas.

Did you have to use a ZX14 rear sprocket.From what I read, thats what is needed??

Actually a ZX-12 sprocket.

I'd love a set so if you have a spare set in the garage just ship them to my addy Correct me if I'm wrong, but you're talking about saving 5 or 6 pounds both wheels and paying 4K or more. Now I understand that if I was in competition and every once mattered it would be different. But the truth for me is ; I need to lose about 80 or 90 pounds and keep the factory stuff. But that's just me

Wheels are un-sprung weight, helps alot more to save 5 pounds on your wheels than say an exhaust which is spring weight. But I do laugh at the civic owners with cf hoods that could stand to lose that weight in the gut.

I love mine. I've had them for a little over two years now and I've never had any issues with them.

X2

I had them for almost two years now and no issues or whatsoever. Just came home from 2,000+ miles trip (Cali, Oregon, Washington) on it - works flawless.

I must have a set!

^ x 2 - and opt for the ceramic bearings,really transforms the bike! Takes a couple rides to get used to it.I had to re-adjust the suspension(soften) to account for the lighter weight.
