A couple of quick snaps before I clean her up, I learned a few new things this week doing these wheels. First that my arbor press will not accomodate a 21" wheel. Second, that I'm just about too old for this crap in the hot weather.

I agree, red plug wires for sure and somethin in the trim so theres more red on the other side, and I'd consider black spokes

Definately need more red so they don't stick out so much. I love the red wires idea. Maybe a red pinstripe on the tank and red stitching in the seat to set it off too. Other than that it looks allot better then I originally thought it would.

I really think they look good Knuck. Your bike is clean and unique, I dig it.
Quick question so I can learn though...I assumed you were just talking about the rims. did you leave the spokes in and powder the whole assembled wheel? Can you do that? I always assumed (again, more assumptions) that you couldnt.
I dig it, but if it were MY bike, which it isn't, I would go with black spokes too for contrast. Good job man.

+1 A little red elsewhere will do wonders. Looks great!

I had it in a hot rod and old bike show today. The hot-rodders loved the red wheels and white walls. I may put some other red accents on it, I haven't decided yet.
