Well tonight I did it... I freaked out and tore off pretty much every piece of chrome I have with the exception of my Dragtron II AC and my Nacelle.&nbsp\\; Chrome oil tank cover, gone.&nbsp\\; 485.00 Bassani Pro Streets wrapped, sanded and painted Flat BLACK.&nbsp\\; Chrome&nbsp\\;Battery cover, gone.&nbsp\\; Chrome ignition, gone.&nbsp\\; Front fender, gone.

I have decided to go with a copper and raw metal old school paint scheme with a touch of pinstriping.

As soon as I get a chance I will post some pix.

 

You gonna have a real cool bike, now....

 

Don't know about that. It will be what I want though. Nice pair you got there bud!!

 

Well, I personally like a front fender, so I'd have left that on. I rodein the rain last night, and I'm a practical sort. But as for the rest? My opinion? You have now seen the truelight, by getting rid of the reflection! I can't wait for pics. I'd really like to see them. I think it'll turn out pretty badass!

Teek

 

You havn't lost your mind, sounds like it should rock. I can't live without the front fender, ride too much in the rain. I do however like the look of the open wheel so if that is what does it for you, go for it.

I'm there with you. With a ride to Thunder Rally coming up tomorrow, last night I tore the bike down, re-routed wires, moved the coil and horn, and lifted the tank 1.75 inches. Today I have to rush and get everything bolted/strapped down, fabricate tank mounts, and fabricate a horn mount. Should be an interesting evening.

 

Lol, awesome. I can't wait till this Sunday when I get to work on it the whole day.

 

so where are the new pics?

 

Hells yeah!
I love it. (But then again, I just took off my front fender and I'm in the process of blacking out my pipes, A/C cover, and brake discs)

 

Sunday, Sunday my friend. lol. I will try to sneak out to the garage tonight and take a couple of snaps.

 

Gonna Be interested in getting rid of any of the chrome parts? Oil cover, batt cover?
