Author Message   Tleighbell Posted on Friday, October 26, 2012 - 11:47 am:        Anyone know the composition and weight of teh Marchesini wheels on the S2? Are they forged? Looking for a light set of wheels for a vintage racer at reasonable cost and thought these might fit the bill. Thanks.   Onahog Posted on Friday, October 26, 2012 - 12:00 pm:        Iv got a set of Marchys from my 96S2T $300.00 pr + shipping..Nice shape, good brgs , machined edges.. PM me for a picture if you like onahog@yahoo.ca   Onahog Posted on Friday, October 26, 2012 - 12:02 pm:        pic   1313 Posted on Friday, October 26, 2012 - 12:03 pm:        The Marchesini wheels were sand cast, which explains the texture of the unmachined areas. The weight data for tuber wheels is very well known from an old Battle 2Win article - which, unfortunately, I don't have handy. A search on here might produce the weight data, 1313   Jramsey Posted on Friday, October 26, 2012 - 02:11 pm:        1313's post about halfway down the page. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/476 23/100316.html   Tleighbell Posted on Saturday, October 27, 2012 - 08:41 am:        Thanks guys. Looks like they are about the same as most stock wheels which are also cast aluminium.
