Thank you for taking the time to create and post this. I was debating on a set of lighter wheels for my '22 GSXR1000R but given the small weight savings and large expense, it's not worth it for me. So again, thank you so much!
Hey Brad I definitely understand your stance which was mine at one point. That was until I rode a friends Zx10r with Carbon fiber wheels and it completely changed my mind. It sounds like a little bit of weight, but it feels very significant especially when going through turns. It is truly a night and day difference. Again I do get it though, almost 5k for some wheels is nuts lol, but 2600 for coremotos is a good bet. Be safe on those 2’s
hopefully you have done this but on your final pic's of the bike you had left the lock nut on the left hand rear axle tensioner loose (about half way).
How was the first ride after the swap? Complete reset? 😂 Nice feeling! These wheels are so amazing. Except the hudge benefits on road I can sit all day and look to them
Wow! You've stepped it up in the creativity department, great intro. As for the weight loss, it makes you realize how heavy the tires are. I wonder if the tire companies ever consider developing a lighter tire. Womble cracks me up every time at the end of your videos.
Iy doesn't seem like much of a change, but the current tyres are worn too. You could re-weigh the tyres after the tyres are dead to see how much rubber weight is lost over time. I recon 200g rear, 90g front :)
Lamb Chops, this is one of the best editted videos, I have seen, photography & sound excellent, those wheels are just lush. Keep going I'm enjoying your reviews. Sweet
Fantastic video! How has the seat been? Is the fabric super grippy or does it allow you to move around easily still? I have been eyeballing the cover since I saw the video for my GSX-R 1000.
Wow loving those dymags, I bet the tyre fitter was sweating it when fitting the tyres 😂 that seat cover is a lovely touch too. The gixxer looks spot on mate, great work and a great vid as always 👌😎
Lui Moto do seat covers for some older bikes too, even the one for my ER6f '08 looks nice, $105 though and then have the trouble and expense fitting it.
Anyway you can find a bottom fairing that will cover closer towards the rear wheel. I feel like most modern superbikes have that gap because of the larger factory exhaust. And when you replace with aftermarket the gap between the bottom fairing and rear wheel leaves a asthetically ugly gap where a race fairning wld be longer. Just a thought
Yes know what you mean but gsxr doesn't have that because everything was in the cannon of an exhaust. R1 is a prime example of what you are taking about?
Very nice.......great video too! Having broken ribs is no fun especially when you get a sneezing fit! That's the trials and tribulations of off roading i suppose. Get fit soon chops 👍
Hi Chops I bet that feels different now much less un sprung weight, watching other peoples vids who have changed wheels say you have to adjust suspension settings to compensate for weight difference !! the bike looks mental and that colour scheme its makes me want to get one, I ride an old urban tiger Fireblade which I brought new in 95, she's been a good old girl though!! and the Bridgestones I swear by them as there's been a few times they have defied gravity & got me out of trouble! ATB Wayne.
Very nice vid, quality of production goes up which each video. Are there ceramic bearings fitted on the Dymags ? Apperently (never tried them) these also make a difference in acceleration and handling. Also I've noticed you put on a 190/55 on the rear wheel, a 200/60 will change the bike's handling as well (thought Bridgestone sell these tires with these dimensions but unfortunatly only Pirelli does : Diablo Supercorsa SP V3 and expensive) , it takes some time to get used to but after that you get more confidence and stability when cornering (in my case anyway, not for everybody I guess...)
Chain tension adjuster lock nut. Nice wheels. Looking forward to seeing what the difference is. Sometimes I dream about carbon fibre wheels on my mt10. Standard wheels are cast alloy so difference must be huge. Maybe one day I'll get drunk and buy them.
Almost seems to my memory that once installed on the Superduke, you commented it was less "stable"--or just compared to the Tuono? Which makes sense. But the way I ride my Superduke (or any bike) is not track day but cut and thrust, chuck it about on back roads--so is Carbon a problem or an answer?
The super duke 1 was unstable feeling anyway so made it worse but did liven it up in all departments. Sportsbikes are harder to change direction on because of less leverage at the bars so makes more of a difference. But it's not just direction changes they help with acceleration, braking are also improved
How do you buy a product for your bike (carbon rims) then decide to sell the bike at some point. Then you return a used set a rims with no problem? Then they send you another set?!?
Steven Speielberg watch out - Amazing production. The bike is looking amazing and I am sure awesome to ride. Now that you have finished it must time to sell it...
Wheels & bike look fantastic! Also really liked the production on the vid. I was half expecting the Lucas Film logo to pop up lol. Lovely job all round Mr Chops. Dare I ask how much a pair of Dymag's are?
Chops how much wear was on the the original tyres on the stock wheels? (assuming they were also S21s) you'd be surprised how weight a tyre loses over its lifetime. Could you remove the tyres and weigh the stock wheels without? Top quality video as always.
LCR, thought I had tuned into 'Darth Vader Rides' with that awesome intro👍. The bike is looking amazing with those upgrades. Sorry to hear about your ribs. Last may I was out with Toro Adventure and broke 5 ribs on the road, the Toro team really looked after me until I was fit to fly home. ( Sorry for badly bending your GS Lyndon😜😱). The production values on your vids are really awesome, not sure if folks realise the amount of time and effort it takes to post content like this? (without a post production team onboard). Thanks for sharing. A82 Joe.
Thanks Joe and sorry to hear about the ribs! I'm back with Toro next week as it happens.. recorded this 6 weeks ago and ribs are just about ok now, not nice is it! Fitting the wheels was a real struggle and took me 3 evenings work because ribs were killing 😖
Intro was Hollywood quality! 👍 Shame that when the disks and calipers are back on you can't see the beauty of the wheels. Proof of the pudding will be in the eating.

Yes well spotted, now sorted 👍
Those rims really do take it up a level! Damn! 👌 Really happy you like the clock. 🙂
Love it matey 😎😎
I put a set of BST carbons on my ZX14 turbocharged,what a night and day difference. You're right the Dymag thicker lip makes big difference.
How was the first ride after the swap? Complete reset? 😂 Nice feeling! These wheels are so amazing. Except the hudge benefits on road I can sit all day and look to them

Yes agreed... I now want to remove the old tyres from the stock wheels just to check!! Good to hear from you Weeem 😎
3kg lost on wheel weight alone is pretty noticeable when riding fast (as the GSXR1000R should be!). Plus, these CA5s look stunning!
Lamb Chops, this is one of the best editted videos, I have seen, photography & sound excellent, those wheels are just lush. Keep going I'm enjoying your reviews. Sweet
At 13:31 the chain tensioner bolt is not tightened
Good spot!!
Excellent. Re spreadsheet. It's air DUCTS, not ducks FFS! 😂🤣😂🤣
Haha well spoted my dyslexia strikes again!
FYI Lock nut on the chain adjuster was loose on the left side at the end. Love your videos keep up the good work

Thanks dude 👍
@Lamb Chap Rides at 9:12 you fitted the front tyre on reverse
Looks amazing LC can’t wait for the video of you riding her 👍🏻
Great Intro Chops 😁 gixer just gets better & better, try not to laugh too much with the cracked ribs 😂
Great video Chops!, have you missed a trick in not fitting Bridgestones new S22 tyres?, keep up the good work Chops!.
Love the quality of your videos mate!
Yes agree 😃
Love the opening to the video. It’s like something out of gladiator.
Lui Moto do seat covers for some older bikes too, even the one for my ER6f '08 looks nice, $105 though and then have the trouble and expense fitting it.

Thanks Wayne, yes agreed do love the S21 had a set on the GSXR before and find them an incredible tyre which wear very well too! 95 blade very nice!

They are an optional extra, not on these
Arty work with that moving light opening Choppsy like it! ...so did the weight saving feel any different when you rode her??
Thanks Mr Flyer! Yes did improve things considerably, you NEEED a set for your Pani 😁
More dramatic entrance than End Game 😄😄😍😍
Just curious,we’re the tyres on the original wheels also new as the weight difference between new and old tyres can be surprising.
Very tasty! 😁
Surprised with how light the stock wheels are though.
Chain tension adjuster lock nut. Nice wheels. Looking forward to seeing what the difference is. Sometimes I dream about carbon fibre wheels on my mt10. Standard wheels are cast alloy so difference must be huge. Maybe one day I'll get drunk and buy them.
Almost seems to my memory that once installed on the Superduke, you commented it was less "stable"--or just compared to the Tuono? Which makes sense. But the way I ride my Superduke (or any bike) is not track day but cut and thrust, chuck it about on back roads--so is Carbon a problem or an answer?

With this intro I was like what batman now ride Suzuki gsxr 😂👍
It's Marvel isn't it? That means Spiderman does too :)
Haha, more fatman than batman!
that intro was MEGA!
Lovely wheels m8! Looking forward to see how you get on with them.
Great video as always Choosy!
What's that song when your taking the standard front wheel off?
For One or two kilos difference I'll never change this amazing Suzuki rims, how they make it so light! magnesium??
BST/Rotobox offers different colors.
How about these?
Nice wheels bro what did u do with shock wheels wiiling to but them for you ?
surely eating less burgers is cheaper?? :P
Yes but that doesn't help with unsprung weight 😋
happy you like the wheels 😊
If the Dymags had color matching like the stocks it would awesome.
Did you have trouble finding a rear sprocket to fit them Dymags? My bike came with them and I’m really struggling 🤨🤨
Dymag supply the rear sprocket, they use Talon sprockets you could ask them?
Steven Speielberg watch out - Amazing production. The bike is looking amazing and I am sure awesome to ride. Now that you have finished it must time to sell it...
Wheels & bike look fantastic! Also really liked the production on the vid. I was half expecting the Lucas Film logo to pop up lol. Lovely job all round Mr Chops. Dare I ask how much a pair of Dymag's are?
Prolly 3-4k US$
Thanks Rage, about 2.5k for the pair. Cheaper than a lot of the competition
@@LambChopRides damnnnn if thats US$ thats alot cheaper!😁👍
Bonkers is back - keep it Choppyt!!
Whats the deferent between baradtor Ti and with out TI
How does your rear hugger attached is it bolted on? Zip ties?
Yes it is zip ties but doesn't move around and does a fantastic job of keeping the shock clean
That intro was awesome 👌
dude what bike lift is that? looks pretty nifty
ABBA Sky Lift matey, bloody love it
What centralstand is that? Did you the same one with super duke? Looking for one that I can use to service my super duke suspension.
It's the Abba Sky Lift, yes same one used on Duke just with a different adaptor kit
Lamb Chop Rides does it need modifications on bike to make it work?
Any promo codes?
Chops how much wear was on the the original tyres on the stock wheels? (assuming they were also S21s) you'd be surprised how weight a tyre loses over its lifetime. Could you remove the tyres and weigh the stock wheels without? Top quality video as always.
About half worn maybe more! Now very tempted to remove the stock tyres just to see the real weight difference
Good video. Would be interested in your thoughts on the s21's. Just got a set but not fitted em yet. What psi did you run?
Love em had 2 sets on this now, also like the Pirelli Rosso Corsa 2 but think these are slightly better
Tend to run stock pressures for the street
No wave rotors? Hope the ribs are better
You've put some work in this one Chops,. Excellent.
And no flip-flops...👍👍👍.
Great vid, had a good laugh aswel.
Thanks Chris appreciated buddy. Probably the last GSXR build video and perhaps ever... but more news on that next week 😉
@@LambChopRides
I'm not gonna guess, 'cos I never get it right. I'll wait until next week. 😂
Cheers 👍
Serious intro! You got the skills 😎👌
You should switch those silver sprocket nuts out for some black aluminum ones😉👌
#TheLittleThings
No Loctite needed on those sprocket bolts and disc bolts chops??
It's on there Mr Winter 👍👍
Stunning wheels mate

Lamb Chop Rides , please say hi to Melania and the crew, they are an awesome bunch of folks. Kindest regards. A82Joe.
Brilliant video chops 👌 thanks danny
Thanks Danny
Whooow what a production 👍😎
great intro mr chops 👏👏👏
For a moment I thought I was in the cinema watching a film...👍🏾
Haha thanks Bob 😁
Very nice, bike looks fantastic.
Very sweeeeet ride you have made 🏍👍👌
remember when you got rid of Beasty because you said you were getting too old and you had a shitty back? Cool GSXR bro!
That bike is fanfckingtastic LCR!
Intro was Hollywood quality! 👍
Shame that when the disks and calipers are back on you can't see the beauty of the wheels. Proof of the pudding will be in the eating.
End result is very nice, did you install the Yoshimura ABS bypass, direct lines and remove the pump? You going to do some trackdays on this? :)
No and yes 😀 it's a job I want to do replace the lines at some point. 2 days on track booked for Snetterton
Chops.. where’s the best place to get these wheels in the UK?
dymag performance wheels
When that title music was playing I thought Conan the Barbarian was gonna through a leg over the Gixer 🤣
Will it fit gsxr k7 600?
"air ducks" :D
Haha, yes dyslexia strikes again!
Shorai lithium battery next! Did I miss that?
No not changed the battery... yet 😁
Cracking editing sir. Must take some thought and work. It's appreciated great stuff.
Thanks SD, appreciated 👍👍
What an intro!
Beautiful wheels.
Congrats.
Nice work! Looking great!..D
Air ducks 😂😂😂 ducts 👍😂 sorry bud, my ocd got the better of me! Wheelies look epic though 👍 congrats on getting the H2!
Brilliant intro 👏👏
Why did you go for s21?
Belo custo benefício tenho uma Suzuki é demais mesmo.
4lbs of weight reduction on a wheel is intense
So does it ride differently or not?
Yes much improved, most noticeable is the way it now drops into a corner. Had to adjust how I ride it! Also seems to spin up faster on the throttle
I really liked your filming techniques Uncle, you'll have to let me in on some of your secrets 😉
Hehe, top secret I'm afraid.. you will have to come in to my dungeon, I mean garage so I can explain them to you
Lamb Chop Rides now that's a tempting offer! 😂😉
Imagine being so unappreciative that you get a free seat cover from Luimito and call it Louigi moto LOL.
No not true! Oh making me feel terrible 😟
@@LambChopRides haha😂
Great vid as always chops keep it up love those wheels however I think it would be cheaper for me to go on the diet
Wheels are part of unsprung weight.
Hey Lui, you seen Luigi? Nice wheels bro
Certainly ups the cool points with those wheels
Cool, Very, Very Cool
✌️😃👍
Thanks 👍
Oh dear......will you ever learn?.....Old duffers don’t bounce! Hope you are on the mend soon Chops 🤞🤞🤞🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️👍🏻
Yes well on mend now as that was 5 weeks ago I recorded that. Wasn't nice! And your right don't bounce anymore haha
Great video
Where are the carbon fiber Staples?...... incredible weight savings mate!!!!
Looking very good
why not fit s22's?
Had the S21 for 6 months sitting around waiting to be fitted otherwise would have done
Looking GOOD 👍
How often do you have your beard trimmed?
So glad you didn’t try and put the disks on after you fitted the wheels...... hehehe
