I think the red powder coated wheels overpower the rest of the bike as do the all red grips. I don't know what it is, something about it just doesn't seem right. I think for me it seems like the colors don't flow. Maybe with blacked out rearsets, screws, and passenger pegs? I don't know, I'm just not digging it.

Dude, they make a world of difference. Check out my bike or TBagr's. It will bring the bike together and make the colors flow a little better. I did away with all the stainless steel on my bike, essentially making it all black and red. little details make the biggest difference in the appearance.

Lowering a bike will not make it corner better, it will corner much worse. It may be ok for tooling around town and riding a few twisty roads. But as soon as the bike is pushed at all, it will be obvious just how bad it is to lower a bike for cornering. It is going to throw off the supsensions geometry and the front and rear will no longer be working together. If you plan on riding aggressively in the twisties, do not lower a bike. If your going to drag race or drive mainly straight line roads, then lowering is ok.
