Magnesium 5 spokes in - quick report
AT B L O O D Y LAST !!!!!!!!!!!

Got her back this morning from servicing, new clutch, and a few other bits. Wheels look great and ride even better. Ive ridden/compared 9**'s with std wheels verus magnesium, but the difference on the 888 is just phenomenal (mind you they do have the worlds heaviest wheels fitted as standard so its hardly surprising !!!)

As im sure you guys know these old girls dont steer the quickest but it feels like a flipping rgv250 now...its that different. Acceleration has improved, speed of turn, and changing direction quickly is a now a pleasure rather than a chore !!

You even notice the difference pushing it in the garage !!

Hope you like the end result...!

Cheers
Nat
