Rear wheel is '08 Fatboy rim with 200 Dunlop tire. Motor is an S&S TC cases with evo mounts 95" 10:1 SE Heads and Redshift 575 cams. Cylinders are Harley but panted wrinkle black for an old school look. Transmission was a $200 basket case with a standard Harley gear set. Pipes are V&H 2 into 1 Big Radius. Ultimata open primary. Chubby bars. Seat and grips are my leather work. Paint is my first tricoat candy PPG vibrance paint.

Thanks for the comment. I tried to maintain a balance between chrome aluminum and paint. The motor cases valve covers rear wheel and lower legs are aluminum. Seemed to work out right and I like the extra finish in the mix as opposed to just chrome and paint.
