Thinking of Powdercoating my white wheels black, and wondering if anyone has pics of thiers done. I can find pics of 2001's with black wheels, but the color scheme is different enough to not really give it justice. If anyone has pics or ideas, please post them. Thanks.
P.S. anyone want to trade mint set of white wheels for mint set of black?

Well, I didnt do exactly what youre thinking of doing but I did use my red/blk 02 1k chassis and wheels with a blue/set of plastics. I'd imagine that visually they would look the same in the end and I got a lot of compliments.

So you should have a good looking bike when youre done.

Why doesn't anyone love me? Everyone has a digital camera or a scanner nowadays, can't they help a brother out? I used to love this site for these reasons. Oh well, I'll drown myself in my sorrows.... Weeep, weeep.

Every time I do a search, I weed through about 30 minutes of useless posts that have absolutely nothing to do with what I'm looking for. Now I just tried it, and got about 20 minutes down the road to not even see a blue and white gixxer, little own one with black wheels. I'm dial up, and this takes forever. Sorry to find someone who has what I want, and won't show me a pic. Just forget it. I'm by no means being lazy, if you look at how long I've been a member as opposed to how many posts I have you'll see it's because I'm usually here just looking around and reading posts. Not asking people to do my running around for me. Good day.

Dude, chill out. All he is saying is if no one replies to your post, there are other ways YOU can find what you want. There are plenty of photo sites, and photoshop does a pretty good job of being able to change colors of whatever bike you have a photo of.

Why don't you take a photo of your bike, and ask someone on here who does photoshop to change the wheel color for you?

I can't show you a pic of my bike with blue fairings and black wheels because my blue fairings are hanging on the wall right now, and my wheels are now polished on the edges, the only thing black on my rims now is the middle strip and the spokes.

If I could help you more I would...but Im not going to remove and replace all my fairings and repaint my rims for you.

Trust me man....the blue and black looks good....everyone liked mine for the time it was like that.

Thank you bmfgsxr. My buddy has an '03 B/W but the differences between the bikes make such a diff. Black frame, swingarm, etc. Zilla, email address: botsford@earthlink.net
Thanks guys!

P.S. I photochopped it myself, there is just a big difference to real life and photoshop. If it looked so good, why switch back? Not ribbin' just asking.
