I've seen various colors of wheels on the Tuono,
and I'd like to see the various options -

Anybody seen the black matte T with bright
silver/aluminum colored wheels? Or black wheels
with a silver stripe?
I'd love to see a photo.

Here are some of your photos that I've cut and paste
from the forum for easy reference.

Paste some other wheel color combos, please.

I'm getting some red wheels for my 07 matte black Tuono. They are off of an 07.5 RSVR so the red will match the red decals on the bike and add some contrast.

Ha, ha. I just think it finishes off the Tuono perfectly. I am in touch with MSS now and hope to buy one soon. Did you get the Aprilia decal from Chris?

here's a photo of red wheels. i'm wondering if
anyone has a photo of a darker red - one that
doesn't exactly match the "aprilia red" but
comes close, albeit darker?

like the yamaha in this photo?

If you look at my rear sets and hangers, thats the color I will be doing my wheels eventually, translucent red powdercoat.

I had a black and red Tuono just like the one pictured above and I loved the red wheels and the contrast it gave the bike. That's what gave me the idea to do it on this bike.

White is way to go although they are PITA to keep clean

The white wheels look great with that color scheme. Excellent choice.

Thought I'd show the Ducati dealer what a bike looks like outside of the service area :)

My (US 2007.5) Tuono Factory, with special engine stroking by the great Micah. Lots of upgrades, but of interest to this thread are the gold Marchesini wheels.

Do these wheels have a gold pinstripe?

whose bike is that? i'd love a super close up of the wheel, and i've tried to blow it up on my computer, but not close enough to see where the stripe is painted exactly and how it looks close up.

any help?

zlionakis, thank you so much for the pics, brother! i really appreciate the help!

:cheers:

I added a white REFLECTIVE pinstripe to my OEM black wheels, the picture shown is after about 200 miles of a ride so the bike is dirty, please excuse the grime:whiner:
