999R Forged Aluminum Marchesini wheels
I have a little itch to upgrade my wheels to BST wheels since most of the bike is already carbon fiber.
Thinking of selling my 999R wheels, which are forged aluminum. Would be a nice upgrade for 749/999 with the cast aluminum wheels. These are lighter and stronger.
$1200 local pickup in San Jose
More pics posted later when I get a chance..

Drolllll..... My wife would kill me literally just for looking at them...
Couldn't you have waited a couple of months to put them for sale so I could replenish my "you-and-your-damn-bike" allowance?!?!?

What's Mike doing that's 'completing his list'?

The list is never complete... in theory these wheels will be the last upgrade to my bike, however I am SURE I will also eventually need something else...
Seriously though, cannot wait to get these rims and onto my bike.

Well done Mike, good buy.
What's the weight of the forged compared to your current cast wheels?
Will your cast wheels be for sale sometime soon?
And can they be made to fit my ST with or without brake changes? I think the 999 rotors have a different off set?
