Well i finally got around to getting a new paint job and getting rid of the "purple power". I think it turned out great.

No problem. You just need to make sure the img when posting a link is lower case on both ends.

yep, the purple and red was from the factory. They called it concord and aztec. I kept the original tins still and bought a new set of tins and had those painted. So, If I ever get bored with the black (not likely) I can switch back to "purple power".

Nothing like flames when they're tastefully done. Outline or ghost are my favorite. very nice job.

Thanks everyone. I love the new looks. If anyone is looking for a good paint job for way cheap check out Jacksters Custom Cycles located in Miami, FL. They do most of the local Harley's paint jobs and they specialize in making custom bikes from frame up. He gave me the Harley tins and paint for 800! 3 coats of clear, PPG and House of Kolors paint.

I'm a big fan of purple, but purple and red naturally don't match together.  LOVE the new flames!  Great work!
