Hi guys.
I have a 668 with 9792 miles (15667 km) on it but i have found a few issues with it.
My main issue is the fact that it is running marchesini wheels but the rear wheel is gold.
Has anyone come across this before?

Its more than likely off a ducati, they ran the same wheels, none of the Zanes had gold wheels to my knowledge

Period Ducatis had the horrid Brembo wheels with the spokes that tapered the wrong way, and the chain was on the left.  I say DPO got excited with the spray can.

Possibly a stupid question, but, can you not turn the wheel over so that the chain sprocket is now on the other side?

They also ran Marchenisi's...

The spokes are angled, if turned around they 'go the wrong way'.
What I'm saying is, that aint a Ducati rim.

Arr, he hadn't thought of that!

But I have the solution: Instead of turning it around, why not just flip it over?  (bolt)
