It was a bunch of work, but so worth it. Now I need to do something about the pinstripe. I hate that gold stripe.

looks killer

Once you go black you lose your wallet, Killer Indeed.

Once you go ROAD GLIDE Black, you never go back!!!

Glad you like it. Black is not even an option for me.

Actually not bad. I did all the work myself, and this was right at my 1000 mile service interval. So I already had to drain the fluids. Just had to buy a few extra gaskets, the fork rebuild kit, and some fork oil. (I like the heavy oil better anyways)

I paid a little over $400 for all of the powder coat.

Here is what it looked like a few days ago.

Looks great, interested to see how remove the pinstripe

Just as all chrome is not for me. That is the great part about motorcycles. they are so easy to make your own.

I am going to try a roll of black pinstripe tape first. If that doesn't satisfy me I will have someone stripe over it with paint.

I don't know why they would mess up a perfect black bike with pinstripes. I feel your pain. I hate my pinstripes also. But I like chrome on it. Different strokes,,,,,,,,,
