DescriptionThe whole story

Born on the circuit and shaped by OZ's SBK Racing division, the Cattiva wheel set brings genuine motorsport heritage to the Yamaha YZF-R6. Forged from high-strength magnesium and finished to OZ's exacting Italian standards, these are the lightest wheels in the entire OZ range — a distinction earned through design, not compromise.

Key Features

  • Forged magnesium construction makes this OZ's lightest wheel, dramatically cutting unsprung and rotating mass for sharper turn-in and faster direction changes.
  • The six-spoke Cattiva design, developed directly by the OZ SBK Racing department, is engineered for maximum stiffness at high speed while preserving the visual drama the line is famous for.
  • Reducing rotating mass measurably improves acceleration, braking response and overall ride dynamics — gains that are immediately felt on track.
  • Complete set includes one front wheel and one rear wheel, supplied with bearings, aluminium angled valves and spacers (fitted as required), plus a sprocket carrier (note: the original sprocket is not compatible and must be replaced).
  • Direct drop-in replacement for the standard Yamaha YZF-R6 (2003–2016) wheels — no custom fabrication required.
  • Made in Italy to OZ's highest production standards, ensuring outstanding durability and long-term reliability under race conditions.

Design, Finish and Heritage

The Cattiva nameplate has graced the paddock for years, and the aesthetic earned in Superbike racing is immediately recognisable in the six-spoke profile. Available in gloss black, matte black or gold, each finish is applied to complement the R6's bodywork while making a statement of its own. The gloss black brings a classic, circuit-ready authority; matte black offers an understated aggression; and gold references the podium liveries that put OZ wheels on the map.

Every detail — from the spoke geometry to the valve angle — reflects OZ's racing DNA. This is not a road wheel adapted for track use; it is a purpose-built racing wheel that happens to fit directly in place of the standard unit.

Performance on Track

Forged magnesium is the material of choice in professional motorsport precisely because it offers the highest strength-to-weight ratio available at this scale. By lowering the rotating mass at both ends of the R6, the Cattiva set reduces the gyroscopic effect that resists steering input, allowing the bike to change direction with a precision and ease that cast aluminium wheels simply cannot match. The effect on braking is equally significant: less rotating inertia means the wheel responds faster to brake input, shortening stopping distances and improving feel at the lever.

Fitment and Compatibility

This wheel set is designed as a direct replacement for the factory wheels on the Yamaha YZF-R6 across all model years from 2003 to 2016. Bearings, angled aluminium valves and spacers are included in the set. A sprocket carrier is also supplied; riders should note that the original rear sprocket is not compatible and a new sprocket will be required.
