Wouldnt really know, although there 17 ins high (newer models rear wheel)

Don't know if the work shop manual will tell me the width of the wheels, but why do you need to know exactly?

All the best

They would be worth more than the bike! Save the cash and buy a better bike instead.

So please explain why you need to get some dymags for your nsr when it will do nothing for performance, make you be laughed at by people, and do nothing for the value of the bike. And yes they might make them in that width, but I'd sure as hell put money on them not being intended for the nsr!

And you're still talking why?

Does your NSR do 130mph or something? Can you please tell us why you need Dymags on your NSR....? I mean, do you even know what benefits they will give you?

the point of fitting dymag rims is that they weigh less than a quarter of the weight of the standerd hence better performance look better than the standerd and can have a wider width to increase tyre contact to the road

This will destroy handling though.

You will reduce the unsprung weight, which on the NSR will make fuck all difference. You could make yourself a faster rider by spending that money on either rider training, track days, or a bigger bike (or all of them!) It is wasted on the NSR.

They will also be much weaker, meaning if you crash you are likely to damage them.

Wider tyre will affect your handling and give you a slower turn in speed, making you slower.

Why not just get a bigger bike and do advanced training or trackdays?
