Aye you can, disc and sprocket taken off, tip for masking the spokes is to get a box of straws slit each one up the one side, there only 36 to do, you spraying the hub too?

 Yes, but would expect a half decent tyre and the rear disc on it, for that price!!

yes rough the rim up with some wet n dry, use some good primer and clear coat, painted loadsa rims, quicker to just get the whole thing powder coated

i have known people to sand blast spoked wheels and powdercoat clear, looks good when you polish the rims after the blasting

maybe powdercoat it all black

or mask up the spokes and hubs

Bradders, if you think about it he can lower the yokes down the forks to increase handling. I know that on the SM the front wheel is smaller. He could emulate that feel by sliding the forks further up the yoke.
