When I got mine I told myself it was going to stay stock......then my azzzzz started hurting so I got a new Mustang seat...............I need a place for my glasses so I got a windshield bag.......where could I put a few tools just in case? Here comes some saddle bags. So after I deduct those non-chrome items from the added accessories list I have installed I only have $2900 in chrome! Not bad for keeping it stock eh?

I like the chrome too.[8D] But I,ve seen some blacked out bikes on here that are just amazing. Still love my chrome though.

Dammit...did it again...popped into the stealer to pick up a braided stainless steel crossover fuel line (have to remove the tank to install a new air horn, figured what the hell)and they got me for another $50 for front and rear axel nut covers...

I think you are better off being into chrome. I personally hate it, so I have to buy chrome - then pay to have blacked out! [:@]

I sure would like to have LESS chrome. Thats the one thing I don't like about my Wide Glide. Got tired of all the shine on my shovel.
