Not really no. RSV's are ok if you do small mileage. After 14K a year I think id be a cripple

Then there is the insurance. Doh. And the fact that I love my falco.

Only real reason I want the wheels is because I can... ha ha. I got the bug of individuality and modification.

Lol putting RSV wheels on is about as original as me putting GSXR forks on the SV...

Later I'm gonna do something totally off the wall and put an 1100 engine in a GSXR 750 frame... noone's thought of that before... yeah.

Aye your right...

But mine will still look different to most.

they look cool, white leather looks great for the first few months

They dont look too great with all the roadkill marks on them though.
Keep them well cleaned or they will get shabby looking really quick.
I hit a bird last weekend with my left shoulder, I was only doing about 50 but its splattered all over the white on my berik suit

not good going into the pub looking like something out of mad max.

I'm still having trouble getting the bird and fly splats out of them

Try some renapur, it stops the fly guts from sticking so firmly.

I reckon this needs moved back to idle banter!

They look good, only slightly like a pantomime horse!

What company made them? Do they have a website?
