Not Sure - What do you think
« on: 05 April 2017, 10:42:11 am »
On the one hand I think its a neat idea and then on the other hand it might look a bit naff, maybe it works on the bike. never seen it done before ( or since )
 It was taken at a local bike meet a couple of years ago.

Do you mean the bling nitrous bottle or the "rode through a puddle of white paint" look?

the white paint in the tyre treads looks a bit odd

Looks naff to me personally but if the person who owns the bike is happy  :rolleyes
They must have been really bored one day, would have taken some time to do it.

That stuff was being flogged at the N. E. C bike show a few years back. It was the usual case of looking great in their promo pictures but in really life it looked shite.

I used black paint between the treads on my tyres and grey on the individual chain links and no one ever noticed it :'( :'( :'(

Why would you show a rozzer behind you that your tyres are worn. That's just stoopid.
