Sometimes i really wish i had my wheels done gold rather than white

Are the magteks the same colour as the HRC wheels? I noticed a magtek colour in the honda paint codes and it wasnt golden glow pearl

Golden glow pearl is actually a colour for a honda car but is what most people use for their wheels.

Out of curiosity is the code honda use on several models hrc blade cb1300 and other recent bikes with gold wheels in the range the same?

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to show off my gold wheels
When deciding whether to change from black to gold I looked at many pics of other's bikes, never really sure how the colour would turn out. I am happy with this, as close to HRC gold as I need it to be.

Painted in YR502P, the painter was quite taken by the colour - he was impressed!

In my opinion a contrasting colour on the RVF (other than OEM black) really lifts the character of the bike, even if it looks a little less tough!

The gold triple clamp was a little more adventurous (not visible in photos), but again I think it looks neat, very MotoGP.

I wasn't sure about the white hugger, but I think it works too!

Unfortunately these are all iPhone pics so not great colour etc.

Looks stunning. My RVF is having it's wheels done at the moment so I'm looking forward to getting it back now.

Very tempted to go the HRC gold route with mine..



The white is looking tired with some chunks missing out of the rear so time to re-fresh or change..?

As much as it pains me to say this, how about red wheels instead?



That is a neat colourscheme!

I've had gold wheels with that scheme, it does look good...red an black looks good too though..
