White is just not right IMHO.


...Just makes the bike look cheap & your eyes are instantly drawn to them as they stick out like a sore thumb.

Just my opinion.

Too true Dan  ;D


That Bof had a couple  when he was a kid ( after his Team Murrays )


he's a perfect example  ;D


I just wondered whether they should be contrasting , as there is black pads on Silver streaks  ???



am I trying to justify white pads here , I 'm not trying to sell some honest  ;D

I have black on my ones, and would do any day of the week.  :daumenhoch:

The above picture of the white padset doesn't actually do it any justice tho.
Lee "Radman's" Turbo looked amazing sporting the white pads.
Seeing it in the flesh wearing them nearly converted me .  :)  G.

^^^^ See, now looking at it like that, when it has a white race plate and white pads does it justice, but I think plain jane naked Turbo should wear black pads.
Boring answer maybe but again just my opinion.
