Does anyone know if there are any other wheels that can be fitted to the SB6.

Mine came with the 3 spoke Marchesini's, are Bimota wheels the same as GSXR or any other mass produced bike, or are they specific for Bimota.

Would i be correct in assuming the SB6, SB6R and SB8 wheels are interchangeable?

Cheers

Steve

Your wheels are magnesium alloy and specific for the sb6 bike. The service booklet actuallt specifies that the wheels and brake piping should be replaced every 2 years. Not sure at all if gsxr wheels will fit. Try find some from a sb6r. Ps i have an old warranty book, service book and instruction manual left from a sb6 that i crashed ten years ago. reg was n744 drf, frame number 707. Hope this helps

The later SB6 wheels are Antera(?) wheels and Levada 3 spoke Marchesini's will fit.
The early SB6 came fitted with 3 spke H section wheels.
All SB6 and SB6R wheels should be interchangeable.
I have a spare set of SB6R wheels if you fancy taking a second mortgage out Laughing
