Default Jeez that's a good looking bike

I haven't laid my eyes on an 09 Racing in the flesh but you could knock me down with a feather (note actual expression was moderated by poster on pain of expulsion) when I saw this:

Those black rims will scratch quickly. But the Graphics are nice.

Correct,

Same roller chain guide only with a plastic triangle section attached to the back for FIM regulations so a child or someone cant get their fingers or tongue caught if they are trying to eat any lead paint or bolts.

Black wheels suck!! I'm so glad my 07 has the silver rims. I don't get why the manufacturers are so enamored with the black rims. The blue DID rims on the new Husabergs are beautiful IMO though.

I guess I'm just different but I love the green rims. I'd buy a set in a heartbeat if DID or Excel made them. They would look great on my red bike. Pro Wheel makes them but I don't know how their wheels hold up.
