Default 883R ahead of it's time

This months issue of Hot Bike is all about blacking out your motorcycle, powdercoating, blackcents (black accents) etc.&nbsp\\; Harley now has a line of bikes that is blacked out.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;Seems like&nbsp\\;the 883R was ahead of it's time with the all black engine, components &amp\\; wheels&nbsp\\;however it was dropped as of '08.
&nbsp\\;
I'm glad I bought mine last August.&nbsp\\; Even though the model was dc'd, I'll be able to keep it looking good with all the black aftermarket parts now available.

Ever heard of "stealth"? I like a black scoot. My latest project sporty was going to be all black, till I sold it.

I like the contrast between black &amp\\; chrome... A little of both is the way to go IMO
