Forged Alloy Wheels

Evening all,

I have some questions about a few of the forged alloy wheels available for the 796/1100 SSS monsters:

I'm looking at changing my cast Enkei rims to a set of forged alloy and I noticed in a post somewhere here and after a little googlage the Hypermotard 1100 Evo sp has Marchesini forged rims. Would the front be a direct fit on an 1100 monster? Does anyone know the weight difference between the cast 10 spoke and forged?

Has anyone fitted a set of Carrozzeria rims to their 1100? They list a 6" rear and wondering if there are any clearance issues? Who is a reputable distributor? Again any idea on weight differences?

Lastly the wheels I have been trying to get a hold of are the OZ Racing Piega as they are by all accounts the lightest and in my opinion the best looking of the bunch. Anyone know a place where I can get a set of these as it is my preferred choice?

Cheers,

Scott.

(ps, my budget wont allow for Carbon and not interested in Magnesium)

Have you tried motowheels?

They sell OZ.

I bought Oz Piegas from Motowheels last winter and they have been great.  My thread on that has some info on wheels weights, sprockets, installation, etc.:

Hope that is helpful.

Thanks, yep read all those but I guess I'm looking for specific answers to my questions. Carrozzeria are the cheapest but also the heaviest and the 6" rear has me intrigued followed by Oz which are the lightest and a little more expensive but difficult to find and forged Marchesini off a hypermotard are a little more expensive again but curious if they are a direct fit and lastly where to buy all three?

Jeff at Monsterparts sells Carrozzeria. Got mine from him, he's a good dude.

Forged Marchesini wheels from a Hyper ARE a direct fit for your m1100 [thumbsup]

When I bought my m1100 I tried to get the dealer to do wheels swapsies with hyper coz I liked the black forged items better. They wouldn't be in it. But they do indeed directly swap. As do 848 wheels.

Well as I couldn't get hold of a set of Oz Piega I ended up ordering a set of Marchesini Kompe forged alloys direct from Italy so just a we bit excited about that!

I have also received delivery of Ti bolts and other bits to swap out on the front end at the same time so will give some weight comparisons when the wheels arrive! And Pics of course!

Thanks for all your help DMFers!

Very happy, they also come with light weight spacers for the front! Now to decide what to shoe them with?

For those interested.....weights with no tyres or rotors but bearings are installed in the front.

Front in kg,

Rear also in kg,

Will weigh the cast Enkei rims minus the rotors and tyres when they come off for comparison!

[drool] Thanks, now I have a hardon at work.

Those look gorgeous.  Looking forward to some pics once you have them shod and mounted on the bike.  Also, curious what the weight of the stock wheels are for comparison.

Thanks Spike and SDRider. They are beautiful and looking forward to fitting them once my tyre choice is made.

Hey SDRider what rims are on your Evo?

have heard and read that, either Michelin Power Pilot CT2 and/or Pirelli Diablo Rosso have the best effect on this bike . . . I am biased towards Michelin and Dunlop . . .
