Default Project complete

A bud bought a '16 FLHX and rode it from dealer to my house so I could install some add-ons and have a few items powdercoated. He wanted added:

Passenger backrest
Passenger footboard kit
LED running/brake module in rear fascia
Hidden antenna
14" apes and cables
Black axle cap covers
Black fuel door push button
Black windshield trim

Powdercoated items:

Front forks and cowbells
Hand levers
Engine guard
Fuel tank console
Headlamp trim ring
Saddlebag levers
Exhaust heat shields

White is not my color, but I think the black and white looks pretty sharp. These Rushmore's are fairly simple to work on as opposed to earlier TC's. Just had to add a few extra tools to my box in the process.

Default Nice results

I like the blacked out look, and you are right about black and white looking really good together. I did some similar powder coating on a black 2015 street glide, but I really like the contrast of the black and white.

Nice work and nice bike!!

Adding more tools, I do not see a problem there. Tell your friend the bike looks sharp.

Take the emblems off the tank and you can stick a fork in it.

Real nice bike. Love the white
