    Spare Rear Wheel

    Been a "Dark Side Rider" for several years and I'm in the process of selecting the car tire I'll be using on my F6B. Thought that I'de buy a spare rim and mount my CT to it, rather than change out the OEM Bridgestone which will now stay mounted on the original. Found a nice used rear rim on E-Bay and purchased it for just over $71.00 which included shipping. Once the CT is mounted and balanced I'll be blacking out the rim with Matt Black PlastiDip which will match the original.

    Here's a look at the bare replacement rim!

    Plasti Dip is OK still not as good as POWDER COAT. I know I use it alot. Also it should last OK as long as it is not a wear item that your in contact with like a boot. Each tire change the plasti dip will have to be pilled off and re-applied

    I suppose by running a car tire that chore won't be as frequent!

    If I did not have my ct on my spare wheel
    From my gold wing with the dyna beads I would take the wheel and get it powder coated. It's not very expensive to do. Some places here will do it for $50. I will probably plast dip mine so I don't ave to remove everything.
