Magnesium wheels would be mucho dinero. I think they are stock on the $30,000 Ducati 999R. My vote is aluminum. NUTS

IF you want them powdercoated.. xbcrazy does that sort of stuff.. look at his (the black one) bike in the Liberty Racing thread, he did the powder coating on that bike, might make good sense to help support folks here on the BadWeb. Not a solicitation, just something he mentioned in conversation one time.

Blublak...That is absolutely true, I am able to provide powdercoating services however I have never mentioned it here because the dealership that I work for is not a sponsor on this site. If anyone is interested, contact me at HD/Buell of Edison 732-985-7546 x6. I can do core wheel exchange to keep your down time to as short as possible. Pete

Definitely Aluminum. But the paint color may be called "Magnesium Gray" or some such thing. Saw a guy on ebay once selling his Buell "Titanium" wheels. The paint color was "Titanium", the wheels are all aluminum. :
