Default Chrome bug got me again

Well I guess once you start you cant stop lol

Added some more Chrome to the left side (Headbolt Bridge and Lower Housing)

Now its time to redo the Bars, Grips, Speedo Mount, Mirrors, Controls Man that sounds expensive lol

Ya I thought about getting the wheels done but might be awhile.

I still like the black rack on it. Ive done more chrome than I had planned but thought the silver engine needed it.

Your bike is looking really good, loving the headbolt covers. I've been thinking about the lower housing myself as well. +1 on getting the inner primary that would really seal the deal. If I were you I would take Joe up on swapping the racks too, a chrome one would look awesome. Nice work.

Cheers,
Tom

Good choice staying with the black rack IMO. Now you just need that FXDC elec. cover.....Headbolt bridges look sweet- I've always liked those on chromed bikes.
