Default Night Rod fairing on Super Glide
Many thanks to Last Saint for his advice.

I had to cut a slot for the speedo housing, but I like the result very much.

Cool look!

Now paint that spoiler Vivid black and it will be good to go.

Never seen one done like that with the speedo, but that's good right! Nice work.

Damn that looks good. Nice as hell looking bike. If the engine were black it would be perfect.

^ I bought it that way on purpose. Instead of a black engine, I painted everything around it black. Sort of a reverse effect?

Debatable. This is my third bike with a chin spoiler. It gets sandblasted by the front wheel... with the flat textured black paint, I can just take it off and re-paint it every so often.

The one I had with matching paint looked like **** after awhile... besides, the flat paint picks up on the flat black pipes.

Man, I can rationalize anything, can't I?

Nice job! Do things the way YOU want to do 'em! That's all that matters in the end.
Again, really nice job.
