Motards is all I can think of. They're not particularly light, and a 110/140-150 combination isn't too sort after. Of course, this being New Zealand, they've probably ended up on all sorts of things :laugh:

I bought a set separately (if that makes sense) on trade me after googling Motard wheel recomendations.
I had them professionally painted and have adapted them to fit my DR350 / DRZ400 / XR650R and will soon have them adapted to my new to me WR450...just a matter of getting new spacers machined up.
Not sure why they are the rim of preference for motarding but they work for me
Only issue is that front wheel, being a lot smaller (17inch) than the 21inch stock offroad wheel means the bike crouches forward and I tend to slide forward on seat when braking etc
