Default New Wheel Paint Job

Hi,

Attached a couple of pictures of the new paint job on my wheels. The rims have been painted blue with a painted silver surround, non of this cheap rim tape!!!

Also belly pan and real hugger were painted as well as the small black pannel on the rear of the bike..

The bike might be up for sale soon, might be getting a R6??/ All depends on if i get enough for the SV, will be looking for £2650 s has loads spent on it since i have had it...

If anyone is interested let me know...

Regards


Andy

A friend of mine has his wheels on his Gixxer done the same way. He said it was the biggest mistake he made.

After a couple of weeks he decided it looked a bit chav and didn't like it any more. Tough.

Hope you don't think the same thing. A lot of effort for sure.

the wheels needed doing anyway, they were polished rims before and some of the paint in the middle of the wheel started to peel, so looked S**T
