Aluminum Marchesini Rims $550

[csmutty]

Selling some aluminum Marchesini Rims. These retail for over $2,000 for the pair. Front is a 3.5x17" and the rear is a 5.5x17". Anodized silver. These are for Yamaha, KTM, and Honda Supermoto bikes. I bought them for $550 shipped and will pass on the good deal.

They are used but are in excellent condition. All imperfections have been photographed. Here is an album with all of the pics.

What are they set up to fit?

[csmutty]

I know that they will only fit single rotor applications on the front wheel. Am trying to do more research, but not a lot of info available.

Why you selling them?

[csmutty]

Why you selling them?

Would require swingarm modification to fit and it would require me to run a 170 or 180 tire which would be ridiculous on a tard.

[lrrs313]

That sucks.

probably out of the question but since you got them for such a good price, could you have someone like Kosman narrow the rear?

GLWS otherwise. sick deal. i paid over double that for my set.

Was QTM any help in figuring out what the deal is on fitment for these wheels? Maybe throw the part numbers up in the post so people that are interested can research on their own.

Good luck with selling them, if they would fit my Husqvarna you would have the cash as soon as I could get it to you. But you did say they will fit a Yamaha too...............I just happen to have one of those as well. Damn you, Christian, now I have a whole different problem to think about.

If these will fit a 2006 yamaha yz450 I will buy them today. How do we answer this question? What is the part number of these wheels? Where are these wheels? My bike is in my garage so we could try them out.

I hope these fit

I can sell you my spoked 17's, they just need a couple spokes

Well seeing as you would be getting marchesinis for $550 I suppose I could offer you like $200-250 for your spoked wheels

Just kidding, I really don't want to motard the YZ. I bought that one to keep as a dirtbike and I want to stay with that idea. I hope these work out for you though because that would be bad ass to have them on your bike instead of trying to figure out where to get spokes etc.

Unfortunately I don't have a part number. Maybe you could call qtmi and see what they say. The rims are located in northeast ct at my house.

[tls25rs]

Christian,

I one of the pics it looks like there is something stamped into the rim where a typical rim strip would go on a spoked wheel. Is that a part number? Any identifying marks on the wheels at all might help Nathan figure out what he will need to make them fit his bike.

Joel

[csmutty]

There are numbers but they don't match anything on the marchesini site. There if also the date off manufacture. I will grab three numbers when I get home tonight.

[Kurlon]

Looking at the rims, there are bolt on rotor and sprocket adapters? I'd assume the PN, if any stamped on the rim is just going to be for the base rim and not enough to determine the application from. It's going to be a combination of those adapters and spacers that'll nail what they go to.

Did they include any spacers?

Spacers were not included. I know they came off of a Yamaha because of the rotor bolt pattern and axle size. The previous owner also said that these were on a Yamaha last.

[Kurlon]

Yamaha tard?

[csmutty]

Yamaha tard?

Yes. The numbers on the front rim are R254 030252 and the date below that is 25/05/03.
On the rear rim the numbers are R362 30225 and the date is 09/05/03. It also has a number engraved into it which is 362.540 which makes me think that therear rim is the 5.4 inch.

I was running a 5.5 rear with no problems clearing at all. And running a 170 dunlop. Just curious where you got this info that they wont fit from?

Also if you say in your original post they fit on honda's then why are you not using them on your honda?

Sold to Lopycam! Nice to meet you and have fun with them!

[tls25rs]

sweet! Nice pickup Nathan! Now you won't get spoken to for you rear wheel wobbling it's way around the track.

[lopycam]

THANK YOU!! I am stoked. I can't wait to get some tires mounted to put these on. I need tires.

Once I make sure these fit completely I will sell the spoked wheels. I have little doubt though.


Thanks,
Nathan
