    Is there anyway to pretty up the hub on the back wheel, passenger side? This is the only part of the bike I don't like cosmetically.

    Uh... what bike? Put your bike info in your profile so it all shows up. I have seen center cap inserts for the 5th gen bikes.

    I like how he said 'passenger side.' I know what he meant, but it's still funny.

    Going to make mine black this weekend. Thanks for the idea guys. I had my head stuck on the aftermarket and didn't think of the simple solution.

    JTC has a bike where the hub is machined smooth. Doesn't have the ribs shown on our hubs above. Looks hawt.

    Some of the harleydoods in my hood in Ogeron dress up thier hubs with commerative plates stuck on with marine grade Velcro. I have seen "The Last Supper" , "What Me Worry" , Swastikas, Elvis, and nude pix of some of thier girlfriends. The first ones are not too bad but the nudes are more than a little strange.

    Better them than me.

    There are more alternatives. A set of those bigass bags with some wheels bolted on from a handtruck or a kid's wagon to look like training wheels. Very popuular at bike nights and track days.

    Tons of colors of nailpolish if paint is chosen. Or a few bottles of that craft paint from walmart so every time you wash the bike you can change colors.

    Some of those harleydood girlfriends ain't all that bad. Maybe 1 out of 50 say. Some of them may not be girls at all so that ratio can be adjusted some.
