RVF vs NSR rear rim

Post by phoenixxx17 »

Does anyone know if the RVF Rear Rim is identical to the NSR rear rim? does it come out of the same cast? Has anyone been able to compaire the two and set them side by side?

Many Thanks!

I imagine it does, there's no reason for honda to create a new mould whilst the rvf mould was still being used.

The mc28 sp magetk rim is magnesium alloy so obviously lighter...

Leaving Magtek out of this, would you say, the stock NSR SE Rear rim is the same as the RVF NC35 Rim? :geek:

I have both RVF & NSR Magtek sets and can confirm that there are slight differences, so I doubt they were made by the same mould! Can't comment on non Magtek NSR wheels though.
