Yup, right along with chrome mirrors and bar end tassles. Oh and don't forget those sparkley gel grips either.

I thought you were going to cover everything in leopard/cheetah/zebra fur? Now you're going chrome/polished instead?

Just go to walmart and buy the spinner hubcaps, you can just duct tape them on your wheels. Should be an easy mod.

Remember to remove your front rotors so everyone can see them spin at stop lights. Don't worry about stopping. If you have those wheels on your ride everyone else will stop for ya.

Actually just stay in the parking lot and spin them manually from time to time when people arn't looking.

But for $9999 you get free shipping. Sounds like a good deal to me.

get some custom perimeter rotors like on a Buell made up and thats like double bling for ya.

those things do look nice but you don't own a busa so why get them.

Re: Will these fit my RC?
Ok. I am waiting for the wheels. I just took my stock ones off and threw them away. I also threw out the rotors, and calipers...it is really nice how clean the bike looks with out all those unsightly hoses.

I did get the chrome helmet...but I got one from a swap meet. It has not DOT or Snell stickers...can anyone point me to a place I can find aftermarket stickers? Ones that are flaming would be the coolest.

(you would be laughing if you saw the cars around here that have spinner hubcaps on them)
