Check out the lowriders they have the motor look that you are looking for. I love the look. Too blacked out can sometimes be too much. I think the chrome is a good offset for the rest of the blacked out bike

I think a little chrome is good. Just as long as it is balanced. Your bike is pretty sweet looking.

On your bike with the silver engine the blacked out covers look out of place. JMO

I think our trade is going to make each bike look better.

You can try to workout a deal like that.

I sealed up the hole in the primary for him so it wouldn't leak by using a carriage bolt painted wrinkle black.

Then why are you asking us? I voted for chrome.

I went that route with mine, plus a few other things. I don't have any good pix but I like the contrast.
