Spoke Wraps
I stumbled across these and they are sort of interesting. I'm not sure how I feel about them but from what I can tell they are colored plastic tubes with a slit that you can slide over your spokes. Gives them a fatter look and you could get colors. They have a lot of pics with them on dirt bikes but I can't see anyone putting bright colors on a Harley. They do have black which I guess could look cool and be a cheap option instead of powder. I'm curious how they would look in person.

I saved up my UPC codes from all the cereal I eat and got them last winter................... Since i got my bike 5 years ago i wanted black spokes and this is a much cheaper option and much less work,,,, and way less down time. They have a slit down the length of them so I dont see where a lot of moisture will be trapped, time will tell though.
6,000 miles since i added them, they still look the same. That company seems like a nice mom and pop type place, theres a pic on the site of a dyna, thats mine. I think total cost was about 30 something bucks with 2 day shipping.
