I like the WWW for my RKC. I use a sanding sponge and Wesley Bleach White. It helps to have a jack to get the bike in the air.

I have seen several Classics with the narrow whites. They look good and easier to keep clean. I had WWW's on my black Heritage. I spent time keeping them clean. Installed BW last 2 times, never looked back. I keep the BW's clean and dressed, they look classic.

White walls, I know they are more work but well worth the look on your bike. JMO

This is an '09 RKC that I used to own. I really liked the WWW's but when new tire time came I went with blackwalls. More for a change than anything else.

I am a white wall fan. Add 15 minutes cleaning per week to keep them 'up'. If you don't care...then go black. White walls get attention...but if they are dirty, they draw attention.

I took the whitewalls off my 2006 RKC in 2011. I have never looked back. I also got rid of the spoke wheels and put on some Performance Machine wheels. I now have more time to ride and less cleaning.
