I'm getting ready to start my winter mod list and want to know if there are chrome rims that I can buy for the f3.even if there from another bike that would fit,or do i have a better chance haveing mine dip?.anybody know the about price to have them chrome dip? Im changeing the color scheme of my bike for next year.so i need to know if im going to change to chrome or keep with the black accsent pieces

 

There aren't any Chrome rims from Honda, but there certainly are F3 wheels that have been chromed out there. I see advertisements on ebay all the time for F3 Chrome rims. I guess it would be up to you to decide which is more cost efficient, getting yours done or purchasing a second set of wheels. Just search ebay for F3 Chrome Wheel.

 

You can actually get a pretty impressive result by simply polishing the existing aluminium - I did the outer edges on mine years ago (see Netrider - connecting riders! Australia's premier motorcycle community. News, Discussion Forums, Links, Classifieds, Articles, Events Calendar, and more... for the how-to) - a bit of elbow grease required, but a lot cheaper - for reference they're much brighter/shinier than in the photos, but do require regular polishing.

 

I was just looking into that. I thing that the route im going...

 

Since doing that, I've been polishing all sorts of parts on the bike (finally getting it back on the road) - I'd recommend getting a small polishing wheel that you can attach to your drill - there's a few different kits available here in Australia which work really well coming with two different wheels and matching grades of compound - basically the same as the two larger wheels I've got for the bench grinder
