RE: Marchesini validity
don't have the exact numbers but i remember seeing an article in SportRider comparing different kinds of aftermarket rims
the Marchesini's are definitely lighter than the OEM ... wait for www.1000rr.net to come back up and search their archives for more info
FYI the new Carrozzeria V-Star are lighter than the Marchesini's

RE: Marchesini validity
Well after searching the posts on here I have developed what can only be described as a magnesium-phobia. I have horrible visions of my wheels flying apart into thousands of little pieces as the tire comes down from an unintetional third gear carry out of a corner. Are they really as brittle as people are making them out to be. I know this could be a thread in itself, but I am pretty curious as to how "careful" you have to be with them.

Magnesium are for those track bikes(only). I'd go for an aftermarket forged aluminium alloy to be safe..Lighter than stock but not as light as magnesium. If u dun worry about benting ur wheels than u should consider BST or Dymag carbon fibre wheels. Also strictly for race use only(track). Juz my 2 cents..
