Those are forged aluminum. Not magnesium. Forged mags are around $4-5k. Forged mags are lighter than forged aluminum. Forged aluminum wheels are about 18 lbs. If you think the stock V2 wheels are heavy, the stock 959 were anchors at 32.5 lbs for the set.

Also lighter wheels do affect suspension as it’s less unsprung weight and therefore moves faster and easier. It’ll affect compression and rebound. 1 lb/wheel maybe not but 3-5 would be significant.

WRS has Marchesini M10RS magnesium wheels at $3325.00

Hey Psaki so if I bring you a couple baseline setups you think you can get the rebound/comp all fine tuned? What about the geometry can you see if thats correct too?

Hey Prick, way to steal someone else’s joke. You’re the expert in everything around here, set it up yourself. Other than that, get .......

I stand correct. The great and all-knowing Prick has deemed “NO TARIFF” on motorcycle wheels.

Mick1976 · Oct 25, 2021

You’ve gotta stop asking for dick pics. Seriously.

Sorry folks for all the embarrassing garbage from this coward he is a troll and has to go.

I’m assuming the OP meant supercorsa SP tires and not SC2 or SC3.

SC compounds are track tires and would be really stupid to be using on the street since they will never get warmed up correctly.

Mick1976 · Oct 26, 2021

Yeah had to have been SP's anyone trying to run SC2 or 3's on the street be brain dead for sure.

Have you set your suspension up properly? My V2 handles like it’s on rails.

I’ve installed Andreani cartridges in mine, but that was only because I was bottoming out under hard braking. But even with the oem,
It flicked left to right incredibly easy.

I was bottoming the front at Sonoma, but not at either Thunderhill track. How much do you weigh? I'm around 170 lbs and wondering if stock is a little under-sprung. Thanks for any input. I had Dave Moss adjust my suspension at the track and bike handles great, just using all of the front travel at some tracks...

I’m 170 as well. The cartridges made a night and day difference

Did you stay with the stock shock?

As of right now yes. I haven’t had any issues with it so, haven’t felt the need to change it.

Remember you can swap out the stock link to the earlier 2015/2016 1299 link and arm and get the flat setting vs the stock progressive pretty cheaply on ebay. There are many threads on the benefits of such a move.

If anyone is interested in full Ohlins NIX30 w 9.5/9.5 springs and TTX GP with 7.5 spring for their V2, I’d be willing to do a trade for stock forks + $1800. Would throw in that flat link too.

How much for the rear only
