Hello Everyone,
If you ride on road with your V85 and like the look and experiencing less intense bumps/more zippiness, the cast wheels from the Strada are a direct swap to earlier model V85s. Brake hardware and all, AND THEY'RE CHEAP (for motorcycle wheels). Pre-Tariff under $600 (at my dealer) for the pair and rear wheel drive cover and bolts. Of course your dealer may vary.
But if you ever wanted low cost and light these are great.
Shown on a 2022 V85TT.

I'm looking hard at that swap myself. Can't decide whether to keep the spoked wheels or sell them to recoup some of my money.

The tubeless spoked wheels are around $500 a piece new so it is possible if you sell the set it may cover the cost entirely.
Or hang onto them for when the day comes for a BDR route!
