DescriptionThe whole story▼

When safety certification and outright weight savings both matter, the BST Rapid Tek carbon rear wheel for the Suzuki GSX-R 1000 (2017–2023) is the definitive upgrade. At just 3.20 kg it is DOT E and JWL approved — the two standards that confirm this wheel is engineered and tested to the same rigorous criteria demanded of OEM fitment, whether you are riding on road or pushing hard on track.

Key Features

  • DOT E and JWL certified — fully approved for road and racing use, meeting the highest international wheel safety standards.
  • Weighs only 7.05 lbs / 3.20 kg, dramatically reducing unsprung and rotating mass for sharper acceleration and more precise handling.
  • Rim constructed from pre-preg carbon fibre for exceptional stiffness-to-weight ratio and long-term structural integrity.
  • Hub precision CNC-machined from aerospace-grade 6082 T6 aluminium, providing a robust, corrosion-resistant centre.
  • Includes an ultra-high-speed 90° aluminium valve with cap, ready for high-RPM and sustained track use.
  • Backed by a 2-year manufacturer's warranty for complete peace of mind.

Built for Road and Track

The Rapid Tek series is BST's benchmark carbon wheel line, engineered to withstand the most demanding real-world loads. The rear wheel has been tested to a radial load of 994 lbs / 451 kg, a static load of 617 lbs / 280 kg, a lateral cornering load of 772 Nm and a torsional load of 1,030 Nm. These figures underline why the wheel carries both DOT E and JWL approval — it is not a cosmetic upgrade but a structurally verified performance component. The pre-preg carbon rim and 6082 T6 aluminium hub combination means the wheel flexes exactly as the engineers intended, translating tyre feedback to the rider with far less rotational inertia than any comparable cast or forged aluminium wheel.

Finish Options

The Rapid Tek rear wheel is available in a range of finishes to suit individual preference, from a classic high-gloss carbon look and understated satin-matte finish through to the distinctive Forged-Carbon Finish and a full palette of solid colour options. Steel or ceramic bearing versions are offered to match your riding environment and maintenance requirements. The wheel ships in standard original size as standard; alternative dimensions are available on request.
