Nice one Rodney, what's wrong with the wheels and what will you replace them with?

Hi Rodney, Lovely looking bike mate, think you've done well there  I quite like the wheels as they are, but the tape is easily removed if you don't like it. Dusty  |

Dusty hi dusty ,its not so much the tape ,its more that i want to turn it back to factory standard and gloss black wheels dont look as good,also the alloy blades have been covered u cant beat good old stock wheels i think |

Personally I'd be more than happy with those wheels as is, great job you have done with the whole bike in general.
From a usable bike's point of view, aren't powder coated wheels the easiest option to keep clean/looking nice?

Nice looking LC
For ease I'd be changing the rim tape to silver then painting the spoke edges silver. Would look more stock
If your really keen you could send them to cj ward with £200 and they will powder coat them satin black then machine back the spokes and rims to brushed alloy

You say your changing the exhausts. Taking it you will keep hold of the chrome ones or are they looking for a new home😉 |

Very, very nice example of a Mars Bar. If you are going to change the exhausts, give me a message if you want to sell the ones that are on it now.
Regards, Aid.
