Almost in the family

Just got the ok from the wife to trade in my 05 sportster custom, that we bought off of the father in law last august, for a new Fatbob. Cant wait to get it. Just need to find a dealer that I like and decide if I want to get the shiny vivid black or the flatter black denim.

Anyone know if most of the aftermarket exhausts are shiny black or flat black. I dont care if they are louder or not, but I really want to black out most of the bike and I dont want the colors to be different.

Once you go flat - you never go back!

The black exhausts are ceramic coated. It's kind of a shiny matte, somewhere between gloss and denim.

Yeah all black exhaust look good on a black bike. I wouldn't worry about that much. Good luck with the purchase! I say go flat black.. but I may be a bit biased.
