Title: Gold Marchesini 10-spoke Wheels on a SSS S2R
Post by: hackers2r on June 03, 2009, 07:25:46 AM
After some investigation, I see that the Alpina spoke wheels are only meant for DSS bikes.  Does anyone know of them working on a SSS bike like my S2R?   Those wheels are sweet.

If you need a tutorial.  It can be found in the early publishings of the Karma Sutra.

The guy I bought mine off of had them on a red bike.  I think they look better on a black bike.  Lemme see if I can dig up a picture. 

His name is monstersteve but I can't find any pictures of his red s2r1000 with the gold wheels anywhere except his avatar.  I'll send him a  PM and say to post here.

These are mine recently changed from back on my Red/Red S4Rs.
Also banged on a 999 front guard at the same time.

Very nice!  More of a classic Ducati look than the black, IMO.

Anyone know where you can find that custom seat cowl? I'm assuming it was custom made, which it was. nice work! [clap] If not, I'd like to get it for my M750. I'm about to do some similar work on mine.
