Just put a set on the other R1 this afternoon. Big difference. Bike just came alive. Noticeable difference in acceleration and braking, but the handling is mich easier/faster. You just think that you want the bike leaned over, and it's there instantly, with very little effort.
These are the wheels:

Not my money. I gave him the money to work on the RX7, he spent it on these. It's for r71's R1. I just get to ride the bike. My wife would kill me if I spent that much on wheels. I do have Marchesini's for my R1.

Paid retail, wholesale would be cheaper, but would have taken longer to get. These where shipped out same day.

Had several people hunt me down and come over just to see the wheels yesterday. They are that incredible.

Tell me this is for the track. Well hope you don't go down.. ever. Cuz that'll be it for those. And changing tires must be interesting on that.

All in all... sweet.....

This bike used to be on the track, but not anymore. This is just for him to have. He has only ridden the bike once in the last 2 years. When it does get ridden, it doesn't get babied....
Marrietta Motorsports has put tires on a couple of these sets. No problem.
