I will get a weight for you as soon as I can. All the other info should be in the spec flyer as far as sizing and such.

AHPminis · 09-17-2009, 01:05 PM

Weight - Rear is 3340 grams (7.3lb), Front is 2670 grams (5.8lb).

Don't even dare, besides I have a better idea. Get this Mag set, then you can use the "second" front and current rear for an offroad set. Then you will definitely have a reason to keep it...seeing as how I'm seriously considering an all off road ride for myself

AHPminis · 09-17-2009, 01:37 PM

Apparently they sold 28 sets of these today in Italy so if anyone here is honestly interested in a set let me know and I will get a list going so I can get a few sets here within a week or two.

Can we get a rim and tire combo?

scott76 · 09-17-2009, 05:57 PM

Will these work on a SSR 150tx?

magiksc · 09-17-2009, 08:20 PM

Man, good call AHP, those are freakin' sick! Wish I had the coin to scope some of those up. I'm also very interested in the tires.

Scott76, first post says they fit SSR, Pitsters etc. they take 15mm axles. I do wonder about wheel spacers though. Looks like in the pics they are on a falcon, or similar bike. Might have to do some cross-referencing.

You can buy/make wheel spacers to adapt the 15mm bearings to the 12mm axle. Very easy to do!

Never mind....just talked to my parts supplier and they make 15mm to 12mm spacers...
These may have to be purchased for the next race season....

Might I suggest getting the outer bearing diameter to see if you could get 12mm I.D. bearing to go right it. I've never been a fan of the 15-12mm spacers. Just an idea...

trackstar · 09-19-2009, 06:00 PM

But will sprocket/brake rotor and everything else line up on a KX65?

Edit: Nope... The Pitster wheels I have here are 1/2 inch wider distance between the sprocket and rotor on the rear. I dont see a way to possibly make it line up.

AHPminis · 09-19-2009, 06:25 PM

I am looking for a reasonable source $ wise for those specific tires, I should know more on Monday.

Right now I am taking orders for the wheels with down payments of around 50% (sorry but have to do it this way too many guys saying they want them then not wanting to pay,) I plan on getting them on the way early next week and they wont take long to get here.

What do you guys think about these tires, there in NJ, I could possibly pick them up if they will sell to us. Just let me know, I am not personally a motard guy so I have no idea what tires are the goodies and which arent:

The SEMRA guys have the most hands on experience with them. The first couple of generations were fighting some de-lamination issues, dunno what the current status is with them.

trackstar · 09-20-2009, 10:10 PM

AHP, get pricing on the tires. If they are reasonable I'll pick up a set and test them for you.

For this quality of a wheel I would think a local machinest or someone on the forum could machine a rotor and sprocket spacer/carrier to the necessary specs, relatively inexpensive.

As for me, I want a set of these so bad, but my budget doesn't allow for a new bike, a replacement motor for my current motard, AND these...can't have it all
