    I have had the bike a while now and always wanted to do something a little different with the wheels. black is a bit boring ..

    That looks class! The Go&Fun honda's do this with white and green, but the green is only a quarter of the wheel. looks awesome going down the road though

    Each to their own, myself personally i would have misted the black onto the red instead of masking a straight line.

    What about Red / Black in small sections ... When rotated you could call out ......... Look into my wheels, Look into my wheels!

    that might have been an option if i had a small air brush. there would have been too much overspray with the gun i was using.

    Fits in quite well with the colour scheme was a bit dubious at first but it looks good
