Default Rut Ro...

The thead that someone posted for Chrome Lovers only got me to thinking that since my bike was already on the lift at the dealership getting new bars and other mods, I might as well change the Triple Trees to chrome. I called the dealership to talk to them about it today, but the guy that I deal with solely wasn't in. Will somebody stop me....does it ever end....do they have a Harley's Anonymous in Iraq....I'm having the DT's...

No payments, everything (including the bike) has been paid for in cash. I keep trying to give the dealership money for the mods they're doing and they keep telling me not to worry, they'll get it from me when I get home...plus they have my bike as hostage..lol

Just a little extra from risking my *** in Iraq as a contractor. I figured I'm going to buy my bike and get it done right while I can. This isn't going to last forever so I'm taking advantage of it.

LOL...I think I"m going to stick with the black swingarm to break up some of the chrome and I'm not going to change out the calipers until I need brakes.
