OZ GP Replica GP-8R Aluminium Rear Wheel – Yamaha YZF-R1/M RN32, RN49, RN65 (2015–2026) V6209YA60

Fitting an OZ GP Replica GP-8R rear wheel to your Yamaha YZF-R1 or R1M is one of the most rewarding single upgrades you can make to the rear end — reducing rotating mass precisely where acceleration, traction and mid-corner load changes all converge. Machined from aluminium and finished in your choice of five anodised colours, this 17" x 6.00" wheel is cut for the RN32, RN49 and RN65 generations and arrives with every fitment component you need.

Key Features

• Genuine OZ Racing GP-8R multi-spoke design — lightweight aluminium construction engineered for road, trackday and performance builds
• Reduced rotating mass at the rear wheel supports sharper throttle response and more agile behaviour through corner exits
• Supplied with a 90° space-saving aluminium valve, model-specific bushes and spacers for RN32, RN49 and RN65
• Includes the OZ High-Density rear sprocket carrier — a new rear sprocket is required (OZ recommends Sitta 201H)
• Available in five anodised finishes: Gloss Black, Techno Black, Techno Gold, Gloss Gold and Titanium
• Direct partner wheel to the OZ GP-8R front wheel for a fully matched OZ setup

GP-8R Design: Motorsport Aesthetics for the Street and Track

The GP Replica name carries real weight at OZ Racing. The GP-8R spoke geometry takes its visual cues directly from the wheels seen in top-level circuit racing, translating that aggressive, technical look into a road-legal aluminium wheel that suits the sharp lines of the YZF-R1 and R1M perfectly. Whether you are completing a trackday-focused build, coordinating with existing carbon bodywork, or simply wanting your R1 to look as serious from the rear as it does from the front, the GP-8R rear wheel delivers a presence that a stock wheel cannot match.

The five anodised colour options — Gloss Black, Techno Black, Techno Gold, Gloss Gold and Titanium — allow precise coordination with paintwork, decals, chain kits, brake hardware or an existing OZ front wheel. Each finish is applied using OZ Racing's anodising process, giving the wheel a durable, corrosion-resistant surface that holds up to hard use.

Performance at the Rear Axle

On a superbike like the Yamaha R1, the rear wheel is at the heart of how the motorcycle accelerates, settles under braking and drives out of corners. Reducing unsprung and rotating mass at this point sharpens how the chassis responds to throttle inputs and makes rapid load transfers feel more composed. The GP-8R aluminium construction addresses both, and the result is a rear end that feels more connected and direct — particularly noticeable during fast road riding and circuit work where corner exits demand precision.

The included OZ High-Density sprocket carrier is integral to the wheel's design. Because this carrier requires a compatible rear sprocket, OZ recommends pairing it with a Sitta 201H — a detail worth factoring into your build plan from the outset.

Fitment and Compatibility

This OZ GP Replica GP-8R rear wheel is engineered specifically for the following Yamaha models:

• Yamaha YZF-R1 RN32 (2015–2017)
• Yamaha YZF-R1M RN32 (2015–2017)
• Yamaha YZF-R1 RN49 (2018–2022)
• Yamaha YZF-R1M RN49 (2018–2022)
• Yamaha YZF-R1 RN65 (2023–2026)
• Yamaha YZF-R1M RN65 (2023–2026)

Model-specific bushes and spacers are included in the box. A new rear sprocket compatible with the OZ High-Density carrier is required — Sitta 201H is the recommended option.
