To vinyl wrap, or not to vinyl wrap?
So, been giving some thought to possibly vinyl wrapping my forks black. Had it on before but (foolishly) peeled it off so am now debating whether I should re-do them...
Picture taken this morning (started right away after winter in storage, woohoo!):
Blacked out forks (with Paint software):

FYI: New bars (replacing red from last year)... stealthier looking...
IMG_2385_zpsuzsp7x61.jpg?t=1492879896
so, yes or no to vinyl wrapping forks?

Yah-huh. But we're Americans. We make bold statements. Remember, mikstr, you're Canadian and if you want a more pedestrian look, you want your bike to look like every other VTR on the road, then wrap 'em.

I like the gold cause it let's you see the suspension. It's not a piece of bolt-on bling, it's a major component and that's how it came. Black, it'll get lost visually in the shadows of the front end.
I just have a thing for gold suspension components, too. Don't have any, just the thing for em.
Besides, on mikstr's bike, just painting them black seems a cop-out. Now, if you could find some carbon fiber forks, then we'd be talkin'.
