...you're not referring to that orange thing in your signature pic are you?

You are, aren't you?

 

I think the word you were looking for is asinine. And I do agree with you. Can't post any pic's as some parts are being nickel plated only a few small pieces brass plated. Definitely not a one off, just not all black, and not all chrome. I don't think being totally unique is a requirement. Sometimes just a few changes make a big difference. No offense intended, I like black, guess I'm just kinda tired of it since my cars and bikes have usually been black.

 

I'm still on my way finding the ultimate balance of black and chrome. Took off some of the stock black parts and exchanged them with chromed ones. Next to come are braided brake lines and cables. Think I will also put on some chrome wheels next riding season but keep my stock black rims in case it turns out to be too much.

In the long run I'll probably go for a custom paint job as well to put on some 'color'. The black base color will remain, though.

 

You go ahead and join the coalition.

 

 

Black & Chrome is how I ride, try to carry a balance, as to much of one is over done. Just can't get into the all blacked out deal, you gots to have a little Chrome I say...

 

This thread could get interesting.

I like the orange bike. You just don't see a lot of rake anymore.

 

How often do you see a blacked out Deuce? My tins will be a different color with probably my forks and pegs.

 

Am I mistaken or is there some RED stuff on your scoot

 

I understand what the original post is getting at. I don't like all black any more than I like all chrome. On certain bikes, either can look great. For me, I've replaced some of the stock polished parts with black, and I replaced some of the stock black parts with chrome. To me, I reached the perfect look for my bike with the right balance. I need to update my signature pic because it looks much different now.
