Thanks guys! Really all it takes is 1-2 hours depending on equipment (but thats only the sides). Im going to take the wjhole thing off eventually and polish the whole thing. The first side took me a little longer because i worked off the factory coating on it. The second side i used aircraft stripper which took it off in the blink of an eye. Yes, thank god for 2k grit! and mothers!

Climb, I am actually going to buy aftermarket rims and lace\true them myself. I can get each rim for about $90. Im going with green wheels because its different, mostly you see kawi's with black. The reason im not painting them myself is im racing now and im afraid that the paint would come off easily.

The green rims look badass. A friend of mine has that same bike with the green rims on it and it looks sick.
