It has been a big maintance weekend. I changed my oil. I took my front and rear wheels off (first time doing this on a motorcycle) and got new Pirelli GTS 23 & GTS 24 tires installed. Once I got everything back together I cleaned and lubed my chain. Tomorrow I have got to get my bar end miorrors installed. There is not much else I want to do other than stupid turn signals and levers.

I figured while my wheels and tires were off... I'll just paint them red. It is not really paint but plasti dip. I figure if I like it I might get them powder coated. I had thought about orange but it was to bright and the blue was to light. I am curious how long the plasti dip paint will last, for those that want to know I used 4 cans of paint.

that looks pretty cool man! i think i'm going to do white (wheels/ brake lines/ other accys)

Thanks. I really like the red and black together. The GTS tires are much better than the stock.

I like the look, alot. I dislike plastidip, especially for wheels. My grom wheels get crazy dirty and with gloss black, it wipes off easily. Wonder how that will work with cleaning them. Not the easiest wheels to clean thoroughly.

I will find out how hard they are to clean. Next time I get new tires I will probably try to get them powder coated red. However, the Pirelli GTS are great tires. The weather was beautiful today. I went riding for a long time. I stop to get gas and noticed I hit 600 miles at 6:00. Thought it was kind of funny...

Plasti Dip cleans very easily with paper towels or a soft rag and GooGone. My white wheels got grease on them during installation. I used the goo gone and they are all pretty again!

Throw a white belly pan on there and that would make your bike look awesome IMO.
