I just put on a new rear www. Nothing says classic like www. I ride this 2004 Ultra like 10,000 miles a year.

My riding buddy's white walls look great on his bike.

Same, at least I'm thinking of thin WW. OL wants me to keep WWW, but she doesn't help with the cleaning.

OP keep them black.

For your Sporty? No, looks better with no WW. I have thin WW's on my Ultra and as much as they are a PITA to clean, they look good so I tolerate it

I think whitewalls look great on certain bikes. My RK Classic is one of them. A little Bleach-White, a magic eraser, and some water will keep them looking good.

I wouldn't put white walls on that bike. It's too aggressive looking and white walls would not look right in my opinion. Also, aren't you afraid of rocks or other debris flying up and hitting you in the face without a fender? One of those tire huger fenders would look good.
