So the final tally on my damage is just over $5k. Good thing for insurance. The WORST part about it is that it'll take about a month, maybe a couple of weeks more to fix. I guess it takes forever for the shop to get a new tank. ARGH!!!!

So guys I need opinions. I just called black bike and was going to ask them if there was anything special I needed to do with their wheel. Instead of responding he told me 400 for both. So after further questioning I found out...

Its 400 for both front and rear, and it doesnt matter if the front is a stock wheel. Any color combo I want. about 2 weeks including shipping.

Good news is he told me that vee rubber sells a white wall that will fit my rear wheel.

So I need to get a total price on the make over plus tires, but do you guys think that sounds like a good price? It doesnt sound bad to me but I just dont know if I want to send it out for two weeks or keep it local and risk the indy doin a **** job on the wheel.

I THINK.....I'm gonna continue with my spray job and wait till winter to get the job done or.........do I just send it out now?

Nate if you want it done and got the bread do it. Two weeks is nothing.

I think white walls will be cool on your bike

Nate do NOT put a Vee whitewall on your bike. No one has anything good to say about them. Whitewalls seem to turn brown in no time.

Contact Tab at Diamond Back tire. He will put a whitewall on any size you want. Just costs a little extra. Check out the Deluxes running 21" up front. They claim bright as hell whitewalls.

Just my .02.

Nate: Two weeks is nothing, plus the weather is ****. I'd send the wheels out and have them done.

Nate - wait until the bike is up for the winter. I agree with spray-bombing for now to make sure you like it. You can try multiple combinations until you find exactly what you want and then have them powdered that way. $400 is not a bad price at all either.....
It's riding season, ride that bad bike!

Mark - he's saying a pickup truck modified his NT for him. Remember........
