hello everyone
as you can guess i am in the uk, i am after a set of 17" volan wheels for my 850r i cant find any in the uk wondered if you could source some?
i did read on here about 300bhp not being good for the 850! believe me its great, some people in uk are going for 400-500bhp and all the components can take it. brakes need moding though. thanks

There are a bunch of Volans and replica Volans for sale here in the states, but you might have a bit more trouble finding a set in the UK. I'd start with a site like www.findapart.com or www.1stchoice.co.uk

About the 300 bhp thing, yes all the components seem to have no problem with it. However, go much over 340 bhp even w/ a good ECU tune and you'll be looking to buy new rods.

I'm moving this to the buy/sell section.
