Me too. I am a sucker for white wheels. Looks really good with the white bike.
Planning to powder coat a set of rims I have white. Considered going the cheap rout and rattle canning them with several layers then a good clearcoat. So far, most are discouraging that in favor of the powder coat. What do you think? Powder coat the only way to go?

i would go powder coat because of all the road stuff kicking up the powder will hold up better.. the guy that did mine does perfect work and i have been using him for years and for a solid color he charges $200.00 for the set of 2

We have these guys just a jaunt up the road. Classic Coatings: Powder Coatings and Ceramic Coatings
There is a price list on their site. Alum wheels w/o spokes, $125 /wheel.
I was gonna go with these guys. Might have my calipers done yellow. (glutton for punishment that i am). Had East Coast folks ship wheels to them. They have a good rep.

Black will hide the parts and enhance the focus on the body. I say black for the heel guards. Black ok for the passenger peg brackets is ok but since that flows so smoothly out of the tail, I say make the brackets white so it links up with the rest of the tail.
The way they designed the GenII tail, you sorta have to have the passenger peg bracket covers on there or else it's like you have a couple holes that don't flow. I was thinking about inventing some plastic or billet passenger peg covers for the GenII. Would need to come up with a muffler bracket too. (I'm one of those people obsessed with dropping weight off the bike).
