Looks good man.

Much better than the stock brushed look.

I did the same on my King. Really improves the black bike's looks.

Looks good. What's the deal with that horn cover? It looks cool and I hate the stocker.

Very nice! I wish all the bikes came with either black, or chrome. That brushed look is just garbage in my opinion..

I appreciate the compliments. Thank you.

That's the $30 horn from the Drag Specialties catalog...vintage horn, maybe? I took painter's tape, cut the lines, and painted it flat black. Up close it looks worn and the paint has chipped away, but it was only meant to be temporary, anyway.

The powdercoating was $100 by itself. The timing was right since I was replacing my cams and changing out the pushrods. I imagine you could tack on 2-3 hrs of labor to remove the tank and all that if you were factoring that in.

$100 seemed steep to me....Here in Hawaii everyone knows they're the last stop for 3000 miles.
