What size rear did you use and did you use any spacers?

Check with Vale46 he has bst's on his blade. Also in the tire forum theres a recent thread under carbon rims. http://www.1000rr.net/vb/showthread.php?t=17649

Nope. No spacers are needed. The wheels will come with a model-specific hub that will require Marchesini type sprockets. I'm running 17x6.0 rears w/ 180/55 Pilot Powers.

There is a guy here in town giving up racing and is selling a set from his gsxr1000. I have seen them and they look perfect. I guess I just need new hubs and sprockets. Does 2400 sound like a good deal? The rims are 3.5x17 and 6x17.

Thats a nice price for BST's. I'd jump on it if they're in really good condition. Just try and check with BST first about the hub fitment first. I doubt the Suzuki and Honda hubs will be identical and bolt right up but you never know. They'll also be able to tell you about what a hub swap would cost/involve if you should need to do one.
