Personally, I think you need some color on those wheels. I'd say either silver or the red on your emblem. You have all that flash in your paint job and then the wheels have no flash. You need equal opportunity flash..

The silver looks decent... I'm not too sure about the red though. It just doesn't go with the rest of the bike. Of course what it really boils down to is what you think. I customize my vehicles to my taste, not to everyone else's....

Could try a bit of rim tape...? just to see if you like it, cheap and easily reversable

I like it. Very untraditional and cool. The red Triumph logo makes a nice contrast that pulls the eyes to the tank. And these compliments are from an old guy!
