  1. Black makes your wheels blend into the background. Every other colour shows them off - epecially gold.

  2. But, would the gold wheels go with the red frame??

    or should I keep them red? With red frame and black or grey bodywork?
     

  3. I’m liking the red wheels and frame combo :thinkingface:
     
  4. Do you like how these look?

  10. Ok, I’m going to drop the wheels off and make a decision there and then. Big chance they’ll be satin blk :joy:
     
  11. Don't forget silver is another option!

  14. Got the swingarm built today with freshly plated yellow zinc bolts (I’ve new sprocket bolts on order) Just waiting on a new chain tension decal and a brake discs and she’ll be done.
    Still not heard about the frame. Really keen to get it back this week...

  17. Had a little paint left over from the swingarm, so thought I’d start to smarten up the forks. I’ve got two sets so used this as a test. What you think? I think it looks pretty smart. Much better than the faded bronze imo

  18. My monitor/ screen is playing tricks on me... You s/arm looks black in the earlier pics, yet the bottom of the fork looks dark metallic silver!

  19. The swingarm paint is a direct colour match to a brand new factory fresh grey swingarm.
    It’s got a little met fleck in it

  20. It looks so much darker though, must be the light in the pics. I like it though, both on the SA and the fork bottoms, what is the paint please? TIA
