Anyway If I get my rims done i'm doing candy apple red. I have a black RR. I think that would just look seggsy..
Red on black is one of my favorite combos... which is one reason I love the Raven black Yamaha's... that red ring just looks great on it.

I'm not far from Suffern... depending on traffic. About an hour in clear conditions, hour and a half in traffic. I'm in Hyde Park, just north of Poughkeepsie. Takes me about 30 minutes to get to 84, then it's just zipping onto the thruway. Made great time getting to the D&B meet.

Just wondering what people will think when I get myself the Norton I've always wanted

I put a reflective pinstripe on my GSXR rims, even though it added tons of unsprung weight and probably made me slower, I think it makes it look cool! I had to replace the brake rotor bolts with titanium ones to try to make up for the additional weight though.

Lol... I think I'm just going to wait until I need new tires to get this mod done so I don't have to spend any extra money getting them taken off and put back on.

Your reflective stripe, was it the multi-section curves that they sell? I have been wondering how hard it is to get those to line up.
