Well with a new front tire coming and having the wheel off It's now or much later to change rim color. What I intend to do is to strip the powdercoat off of the wheels and repaint them something besides the stock black. I just dont think the black does much for such a sweet looking bike really. It has no 'grab' to it, it just looks dirty weather it is or not. I strip the wheels using 'Permatec' gaskt remover down to bare mettal, it takes 2-3 cans for each wheel to completly remove all the old powderpaint. Then with naked wheels I can do one of two things....paint them or polish them. I have an industrial polisher with all the rouge and cutting compounds and enough wheels to do another pair, well I might need another pair of buffing wheels before its polished to my satisfaction, but anyway those are the choices. I'm leaning towards painting them a color, 'anything but black' This is what my bike looks like, basically stock with a can and tank guard, thats it. So some of your thoughts on colors would be apreciated, I figure you guys and gals have an eye for 'trick' so I'm up for suggestions....................................thanks ...Rich
