Black powder coating is always "classy".

The powder coater (Supreme Powder Coating) that I've been using, has a 24 hour turn around time on all black coated parts and black coating is extremely cheap compared to any other color.

My last batch of parts were done for free,.....He's a 1%er and does tons of black M/C parts on a daily basis.

I have been considering powder coat wheels for awhile (light grey/silver on a black bike) (maybe only the rears, as the fronts are easy to keep polished).  If they can do two-tone, I have thought of doing the wheel rough slots in satin black, with a silver satin wheel).

I've seen better pics, but like this.


I guess the new GW Valk is gloss black, but a lot less wheel shows on it's spokes.




I am thinking a satin finish might be better than high gloss in black (probably my grey too).  Just like black paint, every bit of dust and dirt shows up too well on a mirror finish.   JMHO

I think a blacked out Valk would look good. Always thought about it when I had my Black 98. Now I gots a green one, but especially the wheels are worth consideration.
