Im sure a man of your talents could work wonders with a can of holts bradders...!!!

My mate Pedro (you might know him as he lives down whiteley) has just had his M900 wheels powder coated quite cheap and they were a really nice job - I could get a number for you (down southampton way from memory)

Cheers

Nat - thanks that would help.

So what colour if not gold then; Black? Red? Grey doesnt lok right wit the gold frame...

I've got to get some wheels done this winter, and sharpy has recommended that I try Jason @ finishline in Redhill 01737 763163 as he always does a superb job
(I know what you mean about the colour match - the gold wheels on my sps are way different to the gold that ducati use)

Black with red pin stripe best looking for me. Are you thinking about having the frame done as well?

depends what happens...have for sale on ebay but rode it on Sunday and....not so sure now! :rolleyes:

if I do keep it, and the wheels I also have for sale, then I would like to but having it all stripped down I would need to pay someone else to do coz I'm worse tahn useless.

If I did, red frame looks good with black wheels I think and that would be the way I'd go, so maybe having the wheels powder coate black would be the best bet

There's a place in the industrial estate next to St.Mary's stadium that does powder coating.
