Spyder Modifications

Where would one acquire those wheels? I'd love to fit the Spyder with wider wheels so that I may take advantage of wider tires. 265 from the factory is a bit undersized IMO when bumping the power.

The other is a hypermotard which literally has no stock parts on it. It started life a super-tuned race engine with bore and stroke and pankle rods and hotter cams and endless mods, then we found a frame and custom carbon bodywork and magnesium wheels and trick suspension and brakes and and and... it's my city bike..
My multistrada is in the shop.
The other one not shown is my Art Deco cafe bike project which has been in the works for 3 years. Completely custom engineered front end, again nothing stock on it except the ducati 999 frame and a monster 1000cc air-cooled engine.. after that it all went bonkers. Quad-front rotors, custom made single sided spoke wheels, aluminum bodywork... Currently finishing the tail., then goes to paint. I'm including some pics during construction of that one as well as what builder sent me today as he finished the seat pan.

Well, it's a lot easier to do when you're single! Otherwise, bikes in the living room can be a VERY tough sell unless you have a VERY understanding mate. This would not have gone over well when I was married.
