try the search function, you will find lots to read!! I will wager that 320mm will block the view of your guages. Here is one link max

Ive got as Momo 320 and it is small. I just rotated the gauges.

On the rpm I see the 4000 to redline
On the speedo I see 80kph to max.
All other gauges ok.

It feels like a gocart having such a small wheel but I don't find it harder or requires much greater imput than something larger. Plus I like the look but that's just my preference.

If you want I can post a picture later today.

Cheers
Mark

IMO, way too small both aesthetically and ergonomically. But somebody likes them, or else they wouldn't sell.

You have to move your head a bit to see the speedo over 80 but aside from that it's practically perfect.

I think 320mm is on the limit of looking too small. At least sometimes it looks silly. Not this one though:

it's kind of a personal preference thing.. maybe you can borrow one for awhile to check it out.. there seems to be more guys that like it, than don't.. and the angle of the center T/where your hand and thumb sit is another consideration. for the street my 320 allows my left hand and thumb a good/confortable grip while my elbow rests on my leg.. DE is another story w/the 320

320 is great while driving hand-cuffed
