Tell me what you think

I put these rims on my Busa which have a metal flake in it that you can't see in the pic.  I also put a 4 into 1 Tsukigi pipe on it that sounds like a Maserati exhaust. What do you think?

i think it needs another back end... other than that its a beautiful bike... dont take the back end thing personaly
 
Love everything on the bike, except for the windscreen. It just doesn't match the orange close enough.
 
i think it will look better if the the orange color of the rims will match the fairing. just a suggestion
... and make your windscreen dark smoke.
 
I really like the idea! I think it's a very good use of color, versus the usual chromed or polished wheels.

MY EYES..MY EYES....looking at reflectors

Rims look OK but the windscreen is too much.

Pull the reflectors and add a smoked screen and its works.
 
rims are nice but orange seems a bit off compared to the fairings... maybe it's just the camera. did you think of just doing the front orange to flow with the orange front and leave the rear wheel black to go with the black rear fairing? just an idea
 
My whole idea was that since the front and fairing/fender are black, I would get an Orange powdercoat rim that would stand out.  The windscreen kinda matches the rims. Thanks for the comments!

There are 3 different sahdes of orange on the bike between the fairing, rims and windscreen. Love the idea, if you could match the fairing orange on the rims, it would be tight. Right now the orange on the rims reminds me of the Honda Repsol color. Also, either a clear or slightly tinted windscreen would work best with this combo. Just my honest opinion.

Absolutly love the pipes.
 
Orange rims do not match... clashes actually.  Not different enough to accent the bike, but not close enough to match and not clash.

Sorta reminds me of the science teacher/nerd type that doesn't know how to color-coordinate his clothes, logically thinking his shirt and pants match because they are both "black", but one is jet black and the other is faded from the washer - almost gray.

It's what I think.

Very cool idea, though.

Dark smoke for the screen no doubt... looks very nice on the orange/black.
 
Like some of the others i too think the orange on the rims needs to match the bike closer. The wind screen looks better from the front than the side
 
Orange rims might not match but they look pretty cool, and I'm sure it looks even better in person too.

To view another opinion, this is what I think. I would go with a smoked windscreen and get the smoked tail light kit. I like the fact that you keep the color scheme going which IMO will make you stand out more than if you were to just mass chrome everything. Kinda the route that I'm taking with the 08 blue/gold. I figure if I got the gold rims already, why not just work with that and see how it works.. Definitely keep us updated
