Haha thats because they were just polished. They were a pain to do and keeping the rear rim clean is quite difficult because of the chain wax...but when it is clean I think it looks shiny and I like shiny things :thumbup:

Bike looks great mate, IMO removing the reflector on the front hugger would make it look better!

What tyres are those on the back? They look wider/fatter to me ...

Matt, Your bike is looking really nice! I am leaning a bit toward polished now also.


if you want to remove the front fender reflectors ( check your laws)
you can unscrew the hex bolt holder things ( technical term)
and if you order more of those button hex bolts like the ones we talked about on the phone. They will fit there also filling those holes. does that make sense? But if you ride at night, you might want the reflectors.

I've read that you can replace the front hugger bolts with more attactive ones which are located under the seat.

Those two bikes have the same headlights :D, and Z your bike looks soooo small compared to the other one.

Mike...same stock tire...it might be due to my camera lens that it looks wider...it was a super wide lens that does tend to have the fish bowl effect when zoomed all the way out.

Yea Zartan after our little phone conversation I went online to buy 2 more of the bolts, just in case I lost the 2nd one and I was already paying for shipping. What hit me 2 days after I put the order was that I had two more of those same bolts on the other side of my bike for when I removed my passenger pegs and I just put the bolts back in haha. So now I have the extra set and I was thinking about taking off the reflectors cause it does look better...but there are times when I drive at night, so we'll see.

And thanks for all the positive comments guys :thumbup: We sure do own a nice looking (oh yea and fun riding) bike :D
