ma il remus non me piace !

Here is an update:
Finally, the PVM 6-spoke forged aluminium rims are now TÜV-approved.
The same holds for the PVM front brake discs - with new pads they give a brake performance like a brick wall.

Not yet optimal: The rear disc had to be replaced to fit the PVM rear wheel rim, but unfortunately the MotoMaster disc weighs at 830gr (instead of the 650gr of the Braking wave disk, which was much lighter than the original triumph Sunstar disc at 748gr.)

Next improvement: Refinemnet of the forks (incl. DLC coating) and either an Öhlins S46 or an Bitubo xxf11 rear shock - any comments on what to prefer? (The stock rear shock unit has run 34 thousand km without service so far.)

Bella!!! Però sei un pò malato con sto peso eh eh!!

Next iteration: Bitubo xxf11 - finest Italian shock absorber craftsmanship for an improved suspension in the "Slim Triple" project
(Lightweight, too: only 2491 gr.! :-)

The original Kayaba shock absorber of the Street Triple R is only 0,2 kg heavier (thought it would be more...):
