Bro - you leavin' the strut covers off?
I left mine off temporarily to button up my bike and get it ridable. I'm riding to the ship tomorrow ... will leave it as is until the parts get here.
I don't think the raw powdercoated struts look bad ... seems kinda like powdercoating the chrome strut covers black is unnecessary unless you just don't like the look of the raw underlying strut ....

It looks great. I had run across a beehive unit when I was looking around at different tombstone lights after another forum member showed some pics of one on his dyna. I like the classic look of the beehive. Curious as to what fender that is though??
dude mount a fat bob fender on there... i have one on mine and it is almost a perfect match ot that rear fender! would look awesome!
