did these wheels come stock on anything? was created by Reichmanner
Did these wheels or wheels like this come stock on any bike that you know of? I am looking for a set of five spokes like this. I like the slant of the spokes. I figured if it was ever a stock production wheel I can pick it up used cheaper than buying new/used aftermarket.

No eBay APP ID and/or Cert ID defined in Kunena configurationUnless the US market was supplied with something with them i doubt it, i'm pretty certain Marvic was an aftermarket rim. They're very close to Marchesinni's that are used on Ducati's though but the rear on a Duke is for a single sided swingarm

I know that marvic's didnt come stock on any us model (not that I know of anyway) but I didnt know about other stock wheels that may look similar to these.

Late model Yamaha R1's have 5 spoke wheels, spokes are slanted. Look very similar to the Marvics.

Some other late model Yamahas have them as well. I think even the FZ6R has 5 spokes on it, and the rear is a bit narrower than the FZ1 and R1 wheels...FZ6R takes a 160 tire, the others 180-190.

I had a look into that as i couldn't remember, closest i could see was whats below. I know R6's will have a similar wheel but over here those wheels make big coin as they're still used as 2nd sets for race bike wets.

Here's an older wheel
