which chain color, black or gold?

i have the 08 cadmium yellow and everything is blacked out from the bolts to the preloud adjusters, my question is when i purchase the 520 kit should i get a gold chain or black chain. i wish they had yellow but no one does, does anyone have a picture of the 08 cadmium yellow with a gold chain on it so i can get an idea please? could someone photoshop a pic of this bike with a gold chain with black sprocket and black chain with a black sprocket?

Re: which chain color, black or gold?

check this out, i think i got the perfect solution for you. i just purchased a master link from jay at moto-chains.com, and i asked him about different kinds of chains, and he said that hes got a black chain with gold rollers. so that could be perfect for your bike.

Re: which chain color, black or gold?

dont' worry about how it looks so much... worry about riding it. that's my opinion. i like a clean looking bike as much as the next guy, but don't get too caught up in the "dressing" that you forget the steak!

edit: fwiw... i got the gold.
