Anyone fitted Aprillia SXV wheels?

[Jonny]

I'm looking at spokeys for my GS750, for that original look. The Aprillia wheels are made as a 5.5 rear, which would be ideal - just wondering if anyone has any experience of fitting these? Or can suggest another option.

 

Thanks,

There's no Cush drive on SXV hubs, and the rear hub is quite wide, as the disc is a long way out so the caliper clears the spokes.

Must dig mine out from under the mountain of oil cooled bits at the back of the garage, and get it back on track.

So the sprocket bolts straight to the hub? That must make chain alignment pretty tricky?

I have a GSXR 600 rear wheel in the at the mo and I had to have the sprocket carrier machined down

Yes that is correct.

Maybe not the best wheel to stick 150bhp through then...
