Has anybody fitted Adv dark rims on a std GS, if so any pictures.

Just thinking out loud..

You know Nick, you really did buy the wrong bike didn't you?

You could anodise your original rims

Howsabout black rims

No, tried both when buying

To explain (not that really have too) I have managed to damage one of my wheels (don't ask thank you), so looking at the options now.

Don't actually like the Adv, not my style and I much prefer tarts handbags. But dark wheels with black engine might work.

Firstly you DO have to explain. Secondly anodise the ones you've got - PM/E-mail Andy Grant for details as he has done this and they do look nice black - though why he stopped there and didn't do the rest of the bike fails me

Not a plank of wood, but some sort of acid which has eaten into the metal. I am blaming BMW at the moment, but if no new wheel from them, then I will get them done.

Thank for the tip Andy. And Gauloises, those are mighty fine wheels.....HOW MUCH

The pic was taken in Singapore by az63u i think

It would be far cheaper to buy another GS wheel
which is it the front or back ?
motorworks and sherlocks have a want list
