End the Black Wheel Tyranny: Free the Motos!

[Micahgerv_imp]

To each his own but I actually find silver and chrome repulsive. I can understand chrome even though it's not my thing. But when I see a car or bike with plain silver wheels its usually the cheap base model and that's what I assimilate with the color I think. It looks like they were saving money and didn't put nicer color scheme into the wheels to me.

Might be because I'm on the young side for this forum?

Maybe Batman ruined it for me lol?

But the more black the better IMO. Nothing po's me off more then a plain silver motor and casings. Had my 1981 440 motor and cases painted black for that exact reason.

That is very disparaging of black wheels, some bikes suit them, my old Daytona for instance. And even the Tiger has black rims WITH black spokes

I think black rims with black spokes looks incredible.

I think black rims with black spokes looks incredible. No age shaming here, but also being on the "younger" side (late 30's) for this forum, might be the reason for the difference in taste. My 67 VW Baja I build at 16 had every piece of chrome the engine bay could fit, but I just fell out of love with it after that car. On a bike, I'd prefer to let the design do the attention grabbing instead of a bit of shiny metal like a fishing spoon lure. The matte black look has always caught my eye faster than chrome personally, but I definitely have no dislike for chrome.
