Default opinions please
to be a little differnt i'm putting chrome on my bobber. I know it goes against the look, but aparently there are going to be lots of bobbers this summer so since i still haven't went in for the recall yet im having the chrome side and top tranny covers put on. i all ready have them in my posesstion. now i'm thinking chrome battery box cover, electronic box cover and coil cover, but i don't want to over chrome it. maybe just the chrome skull band for the battery box and just the coil cover on the other side. what do you guys think....or any ideas?[:-]

I think your bike is pretty sweet now. Just the right balance of chrome, etc. Love that Skull cap on your A/C.

tb, go for it! Chrome it all to he11. This way it will be one less bob that is a mirror image of mine.[sm=goodidea.gif] On a side note, you should be able to recoup your chrome costs by selling some of the black parts on eBay.

I like it. You're making the payments do what you want. I love my Denim Black. But that blue looks great too.

I like your scoot the way it is - I like the "raw" look and think chrome detracts from it when used in VAST quantities!!!
