You can't deny that the bike I posted kicks azz! That set up is my favorite for sure. You obviously like it or you wouldn't post your question. Mr. V-Twin, to me you'll always be the biker formerly known as Anibus!

The red rims/whitewalls thing looks good on the flat black with pinstriping paint job. I think yours would look good with black spokes and chrome rims. Or you can leave it like it is. Another question, if you have them disassembled will you send them back to DNA to be resealed or just run tubes?

The bike is bad!! but the wheels remind me of a circus act.....you can't deny that bike would look sweeter with chrome or black wheels.

Just putting it out there for opinion. Like I said, I don't even have the money to do it right now. Carnival had me ROFL. I guess the flat black really does make it look that much better. I am trying to convince myself that my bike is fine for now. One this si done, I have to do that if you know what I mean.

I see your conundrum. If I had friends with bikes like yours I'd be redoing mine all the time. Your ride is pimp how it is. I'm luck if I can get my buddy's out just to ride.

Red rings, but leave the chromed/stainless steel spokes or if you're gonna color them go white (only if you're gonna keep runnin' white walls).

Mimo.

Look, RWW has a simulator "build you own wheels" the simulator's bike is black so you'll have a pretty good idea, except for the white walls.

Not to go off topic..... but man annibus those PIPES are f*kn sweet....Once you get those wrapped they will look even better. Are you gonna black wrap them or white?

Im really getten tired of my longtails....but there here to stay for a while...i want other things before another pipe change.

I take it your OL never rides with you. They look to have a great burn angle.

I'm really diggen those pipes with apes combo. I don't think they would sweet with BB though...

Back to the origianl topic ...scrub the red wheels idea....maybe next time you get the itch for red ...just wear a red shirt or something....
