Ceramic Bearings are available to order for these wheels.
Unlock elite handling for your Gen 3 Hayabusa with the BST Star TEK Carbon Fiber Front Wheel. Ultra-lightweight construction for faster turn-in and braking.
The BST Star TEK series represents the latest evolution in carbon fiber wheel technology from Blackstone Tek. Designed specifically for the Gen 3 Hayabusa, this 17" x 3.5" front wheel utilizes a seamless, monocoque carbon fiber layup. This process eliminates the joints and seams found in lesser carbon wheels, resulting in a structure that is both significantly lighter and stronger than OEM cast aluminum.
By focusing the weight reduction at the rim, BST has achieved a dramatic reduction in gyroscopic force. For the rider, this translates to a bike that "flicks" into corners with minimal effort and tracks through turns with surgical precision. The wheel comes equipped with CNC-machined 6082-T6 aluminum hubs and is designed as a direct bolt-on replacement, compatible with your factory brake rotors and hardware. Whether you are aiming for land-speed records, drag strip dominance, or high-speed touring, the Star TEK wheel provides the structural integrity and performance edge required for the Hayabusa’s immense power.
Best Uses:
-
Hyperbike Performance Tuning: Transforming the heavy steering characteristics of the Hayabusa into a more agile, responsive ride.
-
Drag Racing: Reducing front-end weight to help lower ETs and improve the power-to-weight ratio.
-
Land Speed Racing: Utilizing the high-strength, high-stability nature of carbon fiber for extreme speed runs.
-
Premium Sport Touring: Enhancing long-distance comfort by reducing unsprung weight, which allows the suspension to track smoother over road imperfections.
-
Show Bike Customization: Providing a high-tech, exotic look that complements the Gen 3 Hayabusa’s modern styling.
5 Key Features:
-
Star TEK 7-Spoke Design: A sleek, modern aesthetic engineered for optimal load distribution and aerodynamic efficiency.
-
Monocoque Carbon Construction: A single-mold process that creates a seamless, high-strength wheel structure.
-
Low Moment of Inertia (MOI): Concentrates weight at the hub, drastically reducing the effort required to change direction.
-
Direct Bolt-On Fitment: Engineered to use OEM bearings, spacers, and brake rotors for a hassle-free installation.
-
Certified Safety Standards: Fully compliant with DOT, JWL, and TUV standards for street and track use.
5 Key Benefits:
-
Lighter Steering: Makes the Hayabusa feel much more nimble and easier to maneuver at both low and high speeds.
-
Superior Braking Performance: Reduced rotating mass allows the front braking system to slow the bike down more effectively.
-
Improved Acceleration: The engine expends less energy spinning up a lighter wheel, resulting in faster throttle response.
-
Enhanced Traction: Lighter unsprung weight helps the front tire maintain better contact with the pavement over bumps.
-
Vibration Damping: Carbon fiber’s natural properties help absorb high-frequency road vibrations for a smoother ride.
