Rimmer [emoji3] [emoji3]

The wheels aren't standard, they've had a bit of blue paint blended out from the spokes to the ally rim. Im sure its paint as its got a couple of flakey bits.

Tempted with powder coating, maybe white (waiting for more abuse...) but heard of horror stories about the heat treatment cracking the wheel...

Ok just to clear up on how fascinated you lot are with my shiny rims...Ive added these photos to my gallery, still not sure how to upload pics you can zoom in to?



Help on uploading pics would be nice, thank you.

Quite like them rims there's a link somewhere about how to get photos on - jompy usually does the honours for links I use tapatalk on my smartphone for posting pics

I've just downloaded tapa talk app and uploaded my stuff for sale with it, seems quite easy so far lol

Can you zoom in now?

Clarkey what you need is a pair of white wheels
Ohh and by the way , as your giving newbies grief on they're first posts . . . . . . i'm sure you never did a newbie post

[SCRATCHES HEAD WONDERING WHO TOOK THE PISS...?]

i've never seen it but theres a company that we do work for that makes or used to make carbon components (for martin baker ejector seats ) the lads at work tell me that one of they guys that works there has an R6 that he comutes on and has to keep covered up so the boss of the company doesn't see how much carbon he's borrowed , apparently !

No piss taking this end. Just welcomed a newbie in with a nickname to make him feel part of the forum [FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY][WINKING FACE]

Luke on the other hand was taking the right proper piss [FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY][FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY][FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY]

Out of the shiny wheel yes but I'm saying nothing about his crap camera...

Cheers mate but had Geoff do that - he 'thinks' might be a 'slightly' sticky valve

I hid my exhaust for a few weeks but had it on there long enough now.
I make my own moulds and carbon bits at home now so no worries about hiding it all, just got to make it good enough not to get the piss taken at work.

Working on a few bits at the mo, all for 4xv
dash in fill panels and chain guard. Looking to do the other in fill panels, rear hugger and front mud guard and undertray

I wouldn't mind a couple of tank infils but there's no way I'm paying the prices they charge plus they're rare as rocking horse sh!te .
looking forward to seeing the bike carboned up
