All Right, Track Wheels for the MV
Well, unless the seller screws me, I just won some track wheels for the MV.

Not bling bling Marchesinis, but half the price.

Re: All Right, Track Wheels for the MV
Yeah, I like the color too. We'll see how they look.

Ironically, the seller bought an SPR and decided he'd rather have silver.

I think I'll have the front stock one blasted and x-rayed to see if I should be worried or not...but what I was really after was the ability to mount up some track dedicated rubber, and still have street stuff.

Think the stock one would work on a VFR?

Don't the VFR's have 4 studs holding on the rear wheel?

MV's are like Ducs, large single nut, pin drive.

Hehe, was bidding against at least one person on the MV forum. (the MV community is small, this happens a bunch)

I wouldn't buy them. One wheel had a scrach on it.


Nice find....

First the bike, now the wheels. You aren't going to win many friends there if you keep that up!

Sweet dubs, btw...

No kiddin', plucked the SPR out from under the site admin, and the wheels from a member.

Now just an Ohlins shock and Ti exhaust to plunder and I'm done.

I retract my comment.

Look forward to meeting you. I'm sure the feeling is mutual.

Which way you driving? Head north and convoy with Whip and I.

Absolutely no idea. The only thing I know for sure is that we'll be driving to UT to see family first. And we're going to stop at Mt Rushmore this time too.
