Marchesini wheels for 250-300cc bikes

TO IMPROVE THE PERFORMANCE OF SOME MODELS IN THE SMALL-MEDIUM ENGINE SIZE RANGE THAT ARE ALSO CHARACTERISED BY MATURED SPORTING KNOW – LIKE THE HONDA CBR250R ABS, KAWASAKI NINJA 300 ABS, KTM DUKE ABS (125 AND 390) AND YAMAHA YZF-R3 ABS – WITHOUT AFFECTING ENGINE POWER, TURN TO THE NEW RANGE OF MARCHESINI WHEELS.

For those who choose a streamlined sport bike with small to medium engine size,  Marchesini offers a range of  wheels designed specifically to improve the performance and aesthetics of these more moderate bikes.


Traditionally made for the more popular Superbikes, the Marchesini M10RS Kompe wheels are now available for small to medium sport bikes like the Honda CBR250R ABS, Kawasaki Ninja 300 ABS, KTM Duke ABS (125 and 390) and Yamaha YZF-R3 ABS. The weight of these is up to 40% less than that of the original wheels.

The 10-spoke Marchesini M10RS Kompe forged aluminium rims offer utmost robustness and are very lightweight. Additionally, because the wheel is forged and not fused, there is the advantage of greater fibre continuity in the metal alloy, which improves the mechanical properties of resistance and enables the use of lighter rims to obtain superior dynamic characteristics.


The benefits of the Marchesini wheels are very clear: the wheels, together with the tires, are the most important unsuspended rotating masses on a motorcycle. This means that their weight influences the acceleration of the bike significantly because the engine torque has to accelerate these masses and reducing them improves the bike’s overall acceleration.

Another benefit the Marchesini M10RS Kompe wheels provide is greater manageability, because in reducing the gyroscopic effect, the bike changes direction more easily. The third advantage that mounting Marchesini M10RS Kompe wheels has is seen once again in turning because the brakes are applied to a lower weight.

These wheels are produced in anodized colours : gold, black and blue.

Take a look at the following table with the weight difference comparing to original wheels(OE wheels).
