Soooo much easier to clean 5 spokes instead of 28.

Also the 18" front looks better on the bike.

I would love the Airstrikes on my '99 RK. Yours look great!

I wish they made them for my age bike

Pull em off, and send them in to be chromed. You can have them tripple chrome plated for around $300 a piece. Much easier to keep clean. I sent mine off and had them chromed and it was one of the best things I've done. Saves time cleaning, and they look sharp, (in my opinion) Chromeprosplating.com out of TX did mine. But there's all kinds of places that will do it.

I'm with 05Train on the Contrast Agitators. Clean them with Pledge wipes in 30 seconds. Easy to get to the valve stem to check/fill (unlike the stock Limited wheels).

Looks great what size are they and how much for the set if you don't mind me asking?

Really like those agitators as well.
OP, sorry to slightly hijack your thread but...
Those who have went aftermarket wheels, are there upgraded aftermarket wheel bearing available?
