Honda Fireblade 2014 wheel and I go and do this!

Was fine when I cleaned the bike in the morning. I had a semi quick ride of about 60 miles and noticed this!!!


I must have ran over something on the shitty roads in Suffolk

Oooh

If not, rim tape might cover it, was considering something tasteful for my bike, but apparently its a pain to put on

Dammmmn, that sucks, should be a easy fix, hopefully!

Shieeettt!, poor rim.
Black sharpie?

Attention to detail stops the mind being lazy

If I wanted a rat bike, I'd make one

Is the metal chewed or would a touch up pen hide it well?

Looks alright so far. I'll check again now it's hard 12 hours to dry (at least). You can't tell by simply looking at it, you would have to looks very close to spot to slight dips in the paint work.

I reckon I flipped up wire, rock or something and it got stuck between my swingers for a brief moment.

I'm going to be pretty annoyed when I first mark my triple, so I can imagine how you feel.

I've had the bike 5 weeks lol.


I'll accept it as a war wound. I'd love to blame Honda and try for warranty but no point

cover it with grease and spit.

Time to bust out the plastidip

Give her character, no?

I used one of those touchup paints, worked a treat and hard to see without actually looking for it

 

[SwissMotard]

Got any pics of the result?
