I'm just curious what everyone's style is here. I'll be honest; I love the forged 10 spoke Marchesinis on the Ducati 1098S. So much so that I picked one up today to modify and fit on the front Of my S2. Now I just have to find a good deal on a 749/999S rear to match it. It'll also drop 4 1/2 lbs of sprung weight up front... | ||

good call! I love those wheels as well... BTW, the thread is pointless without pics! | ||

I'm using my iPhone right now, so I can't post pics up. There's not much to look at yet anyway though, as I bought it with a bent lip as a fixer-upper. It's not real bad or anything and will be an easy fix, but it saved me big $$$. It even came off a Tricolore edition. The forged wheel new is over $1200; I paid $150  . | ||

  But they reside on a Duc not a Buell | ||

I love Carbon Fiber wheels! I just wish somebody made them in a 10 spoke pattern like the old style Marchesinis listed above. Then I would venture to mod them onto a Buell . | ||

Can you get that one shown for an XB? | ||

I've looked at many sites and never seen any CF wheels available for XB. I HAVE seen a few for the Tubers though, like Dymags. I think the brake disc mounts would cause trouble on a CF XB wheel unless it had an aluminum rim. |
