Post by Dad2g5 »

Does anyone know where I can get those cool wire wheels I keep seeing in pics everywhere?
Any hints would be great thanks.

I'm only guessing, but I'll say that they might be borrowed from the HP2 enduro.

I'd say even if you are able to track them down you will pay just as must for them as a set of carbon ones!!

In 2010 BMW produced a R1200R with wire wheels. I thought it was for general sales...

Looks like you will be able to get them at your local BMW Motorrad dealer just as soon as the "New R1200R Classic" arrives. \:D/
