New rims and tires...

[trevor]

Well I have been slowly changing my 1100. Today I got the powder coated rims that I bought from JWhelan on along with new rubber (Sport Demons). I really like the new look.

I'll say it again - the black rims really give your bike a more "musclebike" look. They really give it more presence! The bottom photo of the bike without the luggage rack is awesome! I certainly understand the practicality of luggage racks, but any kind of musclebike looks better without one.

Thanks Glenn, you are right. Gotta take it off when not in use.

Gotta agree about the luggage rack...How much better would this picture look without that dumb bag on the back?

Oh yeah...The black rims look tuff... as in badass....

The rims came off a 82-83 gs1100e. JWhelan here sold them to me. I have wanted to have black rims for a while now but didn't want to paint my stock one so now I have the best of both worlds. Stock rims with a set of Avons on them and powder coated black ones with the Perilli Sport Demons.

Trevor you could have leather saddle bags with fringe on them on that bike and it would still look amazing.
