I would leave the jugs and heads as is. The black tubes and r/b covers would play off those I think. The outer primary would look good black, but would look better if you can swing doing the inner also ( ask me how I know lol ). And again, just my opinion.

I had them protect the mating services so they are smooth against the seal surfaces.

So, if there was a question to answer, I say, by all means, Go for it



Oh yeah, don't forget the swing arm nut cover if you haven't doused it yet with PC!

Should I powder the parts gloss black or semi gloss like the rest of the bike? I was going to do black jugs and cylinders but I think with black rocker boxes it would be too much black. Should I do the primary or leave it gray? I'm going to vht the pipe for now and get it powdered down the road after I have it twisted.
