Hi fellow gurus and builders. I have a strong opinion on this. Please don't paint the entire bike black! I don't know who likes this look. If you're trying to make it invisible to run from the cops, goal achieved. I personally think this makes the bike look ancient and abused. It's sad some people like this. I just don't get it.

Is this in SoCal? like 90% of the bikes I see on Craigslist have black plastics. This takes it to a whole other level. thanks for sharing!

I just noticed he's asking $5,500! Boy is he proud of this bike! I spotted a Wiseco crankshaft in his rebuild picture too. He's smoking some good stuff. Tongue

"But it's murdered out-it's sick bro..."

Incidentally, that appears to be a first-gen AF CR250. Its entirely possible that guy used to be normal, and the bike turned him into what he is now due to unexpected get-offs and ridiculous vibration levels...

Must agree, only thing worse than black rims is a black bike. Wink

I would not want anyone knowing I was riding that bike either so I think it was smart to black it out

Craigslist is full of rattle canned "all one color" bikes and I would surmise most of them a probably stolen.

Yea I see all these bikes on craigslist with all black or all white plastics and it looks awful. Especially when they spray paint the wheels to.
