They really change up the look of the bike.
You're right, that does make a difference in the look. Again, I hadn't even been paying attention to that. Great - now I have something else to think about that's going to cost me $.......

Guys- those are the '14 wheels that came on the bike. I simply stripped the black off the wheel lip. Just some painters tape, paint stripper and a scotch brite pad.Cheap and easy.
I actually don't care for the way the factory chose to do the black/silver wheels because they went into the barrel of the rim too far, too much silver- looks odd. I prefer just the lip.
lol, serves me right for not looking at the full-size image of your bike. Looking closer at your wheels I do prefer the look of the wheels on the '13 models. But I still like what you've done. I understand that many prefer the all blacked out look of the '14 models, but your solution provides a nice alternative look that makes a big difference that appeals to me. Nice modification.

Cheap and easy.
