Nice pick! I think they look great as is, but I know I would powder them.

With your bike...leave as is, unless you're planning to black-out the bike later down the road...

Coat them the same color as your bike .. IMO that is origional

But at the end of the day I think spokes are the way to go on your bike. I think switchback wheels are ugly

With the amount of chrome on yours I think they would look great as is. Or, if you can't decide, you could just sell 'em to me

I would probably PC them. But I think they would look best as is on your scoot...

Those wheels would look sweet on your bike as is.

I love spokes also...i got a decent deal on these so i scooped em up..my plan is to throw these on for a few then powder these rims and hubs gloss black...i figure i can always go back if these dont work out
