07 ZX14 wheels/rims
11/04/09 7:20 PM

I am looking to get a set of black wheels for my 07 ZX14 due to the fact that I do not care for the looks for the silver ones on my bike. Would like to make an even trade with someone if possible. Mine are in brand new condition because I just purchased the bike as a L.O. model in May 2009 and they have roughly 4000 miles on them. If I cant find someone to trade I may be interested in purchasing a used set or getting the current ones powder coated. Anyone have anything or know who does good powder coating at a fair price. I am located in Michigan but shipping is not a big deal. Thanks

I powder coated my 07 wheels and had the lips polished. Looks very nice, but a bit of a pain to keep clean cus you gotta polish them after every wash to keep them looking good. Looks 1000 times better than the stock silver. My bike is black and very clean.

I'm just going to rattle can mine this winter and put a heavy layer of clear coat on them. Lots of work but pretty cheap.

Yep, after every ride as I live at the coast and in a very active agricultural area, with fruit, wheat and things that attract zillions of bugs. Black is a bitch to keep clean. Absolutely only hand washed, no pressure cleaners for me.

Good luck JRP. I have been trying the same thing for a year. No takers. I'm also in Michigan, hour south of the bridge. For sale section you'll find my add. Mine are brand new 0 miles.
