### New Rims For the Busa (Pictures) ###
« on: October 12, 2005, 10:13:23 PM »
Well tonight just finished up putting the front wheel on and double checking everything to make sure nothing falls off :)
Not the best pictures, cheap camera poor lighting but will post better when I can be outside.
Also mounted them on Pilot Powers. 

The rims cost $ 980.00 shipped to the door.  Perfect fit ... no mickey mouse anything just like factory except lighter, and has some bling factor.  Had the same brand different style on my KAW with over 8000 miles and loved them.  Easy to clean super light and strong.  You will have to click on the links below to see them until I post them on my site.

Yeah, great wheels.  Have them on sale for the last couple months.  Post them on your bike when you get a chance.

What do they weigh?  Special sprockets? 

Charles, how much?

The weight is 3.5 pounds lighter than the stock rear and 2.5 pounds lighter than front, so not a huge weight difference but rotational weight is always double so 6 pounds is like 12 pounds.  But the bling factor is worth it.  Was going to chrome factory but that adds weight, plus these have 3 bearings vs 2 and a better cush drive setup.  Very please with them.  On the hayabusa.org website there is a user called goldenchild and he is selling them brand new to your door for $ 900.00 which is even a better deal.

So these are no longer available?



Do they accept the stock hardware?

Nope, not anymore.  The Stage1 are like those but the spokes are solid.  The V6 are pretty nice too, just not really my taste.

they accept stock rotors front and rear. the sprocket is a zx-9/KZ1000 sprocket that AFAm and Sunstar both have available. but, AFAM is the only one making a steel sprocket. they come with their own cush. I have 2 spare cush's. 3 rear bearings, nice round cush'es too.

They look good. It looks like your spool catches on the PitBull are backwards. The long tab faces forward.

Yep all the stage 2's are gone,but will make you a hell of a deal on the vr6's or the stage 1's.We can get you any kind of wheels you want.I'm working with a few companies to see if there is something comparable to the stage 2's.I have a oz racing rear wheel that ever time I find something that almost matches the freakin sell out.I think somoene will realize how popular that look is and start making them again.

My rims are the polished ones,  I got them from http://www.czusainc.com according to the website he is still showing them for sale. 
I had Stage one on my KAW the Stage 2 are a little lighter and I think look better than solid spokes but they are the same wheels just the spokes are cut out, not sure why they could not make more.  I would call the guy and find out.  Super nice to deal with but has bad english. 

I have new pictures of the bike outside.  Scroll down to the last set of pictures from the link below to see the newest photo's

Goldenchild said he spoke to him about the stage2 and he didn't have any "pairs" left for the Busa, only odds and ends.  I'm definitely going to give them a call, it doesn't hurt ask. 

Beautiful machine, I'm envious

I spoke to Matsu himself, hard to understand but a really nice guy  :D
He said minimum run of 50 sets to get the Stage2's back on line  :(   Offering a good deal on the Stage1 though, under $1k.
