I know this is sort of a stupid question but I want to know before I try anything. I love those 10 spoke rims off of the s4rs and i was wondering if they would fit my s2r 800? If they do than don't be surprised to see a set of black ones on my bike [evil]. BTW I am on the lookout for a used set possibly trading my stock forks, front brakes and rims for them....

Damn those rims are so sexy ;D
They are super sexy! but they cost $$$ you could get some rims that arent OEM.
I believe the answer to your question is yes, the wheels should fit. And they are cool looking so go for it!

just sayin'
Yes, they will fit your bike - that being said:
1.) The front wheel has a different rotor bolt pattern (5 bolt, if memory serves) than the S4R and S2R1000. I believe it is different than the S2R800, but do double check. Bottom line is you will likely need the rotors off the S4RS or similar to fit. I
2.) 848 or Hypermotard/HMS wheels will fit your bike too
They're definitely lighter than the stock wheels on your bike, plus you can sell the stockers for 600-700$ [moto]

more like 50. and to me. No one else will buy them at that incredible price.
I'm pretty sure the offset on the 5-bolt rotors is different from what's on an S2R800.
Furthermore, the rotor diameter is definitely different, so you can't use the OEM 2-piston calipers that came on your S2R800.

Wow, because I didn't do any research or check eBay for completed prices when I was considering this mod [roll]
Why don't you check eBay completed listings and let me know how that works out [thumbsup]

Sweet 8) Wasn't sure about that, I got quite a bit of conflicting info when looking at this too [moto]

The offset is in fact different.
Just as a heads up, according to Ducati parts Microfiche the S4RS has the 5-Bolt pattern, so you'll need to get rotors (and new calipers)
