Title: Will these wheels fit? Post by: sofadriver on January 03, 2012, 05:27:54 PM I need some expert advice.
Will these fit my S2r1000? http://seattle.craigslist.org/skc/mcy/2781368141.html (http://seattle.craigslist.org/skc/mcy/2781368141.html) How's the weight? I've been considering having my wheels powdercoated this color, anyhow. That alone would be $95/ wheel plus tax. I can sell the tires. Thanks Title: Re: Will these wheels fit?

Front wheel is ~2.5 lbs heavier than what you've got. I don't have any weights for the SSS rears in question.... but I'd expect a similar weight penalty. http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=47036.0 (http://www.ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=47036.0) Title: Re: Will these wheels fit?

(stolen from Motowheels) Wheel weights with bearings: OEM aluminum 3-spokes, 11.5 lbs front, 13 lbs rear OEM aluminum 5-spokes (996/998 - same as S2r1000 I think), 9.25 lbs front, 12 lbs rear Like you said, that's a lot of weight. Think I'll stick with what I've got. |
