From what i understand putting magnesium wheels on the bike will reduce the weight by 5kg but this is unsprung weight which equates to 30kgs on the bike so obvouisly this will make a difference to turn in and every other handling aspect and performance how can that not be a good thing?? |
How much do you weigh? go on a diet!
Ive got the slipper, and the light weight wheels (999R)
Full 57mm termi and pc111R..............They all make a difference, but people still pass me on the track!
I ride a heavy pan thing on the road..........now there is a challenge, (doing it safely n all)
You have to put it in perspective. If you get summat cos youve got the money, or you just fancy it...well dont ask, or get put off by us lot!
If you are asking, then really a lot of it is just expense that you could do a track day, or have lessons....both on road and track.
Thats life........
