I would recommend motomummy.com, but they cited some issues with the wheels which led them to remove the product from their stock. There were no specifics, but usually it's not good when a vendor pulls a product.

If you do get a set of them from somewhere, do it soon, because those wheels are on the verge of a price increase.

Talk to brad at superbike supply, I got mine for the 1KRR from him for a steal.

The issue they were having was a spacer issue, mine was resolved in a couple of days.

Hope that helps.

I'd go with the Marchesinis instead. Forged Alum if it's going to be ridden on the street.

I got my Carrozzeria wheels from CTS Moto.
There was an issue with spacer widths on some models, but that was long ago.
The wheels are top notch quality.

thanks I will give them a call tomorrow... someone else strung me along for a while and I got tired of waiting today and pulled the plug. It's time to deal with someone responsive.

they will have my order tomorrow morning!

Tell him Rob aka Northern RR sent you. Brad is an awesome guy to deal with and he has the best pricing anywhere.

Bee? no I do not. where did he race?

I raced primarily on the east coast. LRRS, Birdgehampton, Pocono, Road Atlanta (my fav when they had the gravity cavity). Mid Ohio, Brainerd, Las Vegas and Laguna Seca and of course Daytona!

Re: where can I get a set of gold Carrozzeria wheels for my RC51

He worked as a mechanic with Duc when picotte was there I believe. Team yamaha as well but that may have been ealier? He raced awhile ago 10-15 years at least. Has one of the trickest bikes I have ever seen.about an 86 fzr750 unreal is the only way to describe it.

Awesome guy anyways, I met him at VIR last year and ended up staying at his house for a couple of days.

Either way good luck with the rims you will love them.
