Default PC wheels

The PO of Cathy's bike kept it in a carport out at the beach. Most of the chrome is pitted and she finally got tired of the way the wheels looked, but couldn't see springing the $$ for new chrome ones. So she had them blasted and powder coated. Thought you might like a look.



Bike is obviously Vivid Black. PC guy calls his color Gloss black. Not a perfect match but close enough that most won't tell a difference.

Great choice! I did the same thing on my Sportster and it too was a night and day difference and a hell of a lot cheaper than new wheels.

Thanks. Think the only thing we'd do differently would be to have the rim around the outside of the sprocket painted to look like chrome. Our PC guy could have done that but he would have sent it out for painting adding to both $$ and turnaround time. She thought the chrome head sprocket bolts would give it the little zing she wanted but reality is you can barely see them when the belt guard and all are on.

Might try it ourselves (Rustoleum Metallic Silver rattle can is a good approximate for chrome) next time we have to take the wheel off.
