Don't mind the terrible quality, but to give you an idea.

pretty good job to get the feel of it. i actually like it.

this is where i got the idea, mv agusta f4 tamburini, similar color scheme:



i think that shade of gold would look awesome. obviously the mv is more aggressive looking, but i love the way it looks.

I like gold wheels on most colors, but I do think the three spoke is a bit off with gold, and prefer it to be on a bike with a dominate color. The RR is mostly red with a bit of black, where the old honda is pretty much 50/50, which doesn't look quite as good I think. The one redeeming quality may be the "i" graphic as it is yellow which would help tie in the gold wheels.

Edit: note all the gold accents on the mv agusta, that really helps tie in the wheels. Another option could be white wheels...
