fazer1sniper Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) After thinking hard of going back to the fairing and headlights I decided to stay as it is. I did get a few things knocked out. The first was a WTF mistake.After having my new perreli Angel ST's mounted I tried to remove the glue from the old weights. It was giving me a hard time so I put some acitone on a rag to remove it, well it worked too well. Took the black finish off the wheel.... Screw it. I took it all off the smooth outside part of the wheel, used some Mothers and Brasso and went two tone.Then I decided to run with it. My shop made pipe was cool but it being all black made me wanna try something new. I took my stock, dented pipe, and cur it down 7 inches ( at the dent) and salveged one baffle I welded back in, shot the strap in high heat black & welded it back together, also shot my front lower forks in black gun epoxy. Minor changes but I like it as of now. Hell it was raining alot anyway. Edited May 25, 2011 by fazer1sniper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rctaylor Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 Lemme know what you think of the Angels, wet and dry and longevity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fazer1sniper Posted May 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 I plan on it. There still brand spankin new so the season will tell. So far, in the 2 mile testride before the storms, I love them as much as my M3 Metzlers. Now if they last more than 3K miles... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmh_sprint Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 Like great. add a nice touch that goes with the overall paint scheme of the bike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 that has to be the best "happy accident" i've seen in a long time, wheels look awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron505 Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 Does look good. Goes well with the skunk. I'm using Dyna Beads now, but I may try Ride On next, cause I hate having weights on my wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandit12 Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 Your bike looks good. I like the wheels like that, when I had my Bandit S one of the first things I done to it was strip the outside ring of the wheels. I had virtually no problem keeping them bright and shiny.

fazer1sniper Posted May 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 If cleaning the wheels start to drive me nuts I can allway go back to black or go ahead and clear coat 'em. Right now I just wanna get to riding and less wrenching for a few months anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
