True, but overall weight, and if one weighs less, it's less sprung weight, and overall weight equals faster times, horsepower to weight ratios etc....

For the cost of the rims, I don't see it as a viable option, unless your a professional racer on the moto gp circuit.

But hey I've spent money on things I just wanted to have, for that reason, I wanted it. Like my titanium fasteners, I sure as hell didn't need them, I wanted them, and had to replace some of the OEM ones(rotor, caliper bolts, and rear sprocket nuts, etc..), a good enough excuse for me.
