I just would never go to a 16 front and rear instead of my 21 front. Also your opening a can of worms... Your gonna have to black out a bunch of stuff to make it look clean... You can keep the chrome and just go with a little black but either way I think you'll need some black on the bike! who knows thou!

Sell them to lionscorn...... he's runnen a 21"er and regrets it... So im sure a 16/16 black combo would beeeedazzle him ....lol........ It would give him the "new direction" he's looken for. Either or good luck on your sale!

I have to agree with everyone, I don't think that color combo works for your ride. I would hold out for something different!!

I don't care for the 21" look and consider changing to 16 a good improvement. Big improvement. (matter of taste, but that fad don't work on a bike in my opinion).

However, the black ain't gonna work either, unless you paint the bike (which I wouldn't rule out).

You asked for opinions. Sorry if I offended.
