You either saved me £100 plus by me not buying a bigger front wheel or cost me a couple of £k on HRC suspension. Me thinks it's the former and my 21R just gets the Maxton mods on the std forks with a std 3" front wheel; Nice one Wink

I'd personally say the £100 would be far better spent on the suspension or brakes, than on a 3.5" NC wheel. NSRs handle perfectly well with the standard 110/150 combination. They steer quickly, and are stable. It's easy to break Honda's good work, but not so easy to better it!

My advice on wheels is, if you're a tart (like me!), get some SP Magteks, and if you're fast, spend the [considerable] extra on the wider and lighter HRC RS250 Magteks or Marchesinis... once the suspension and geometry are set up.
