Chrome.

Did you start blacking out parts on the left side rear? It looks pretty dark there...Needs some chrome or the whole bike needs more black.

I did this quick in Photoshop...gives you an idea what black lowers would look like. Sorry, I can't paint "chrome"...

Edit...I also did Chrome for you to see. I love Photoshop.

i can honestly see yr dilema, yr bike would look good with both for sure, each equaly as cool.

i would say get the cheaper of the 2 because as far as looks go, won't be a difference.

Looking at my bike you can tell I'm a fan of black but on your bike I think the chrome would look a lot better. Sharp bike!

Thanks for the quick Photochop Vic, I think you guys are correct Chrome would look best.

Yes Started to balance out with chrome Blacks, and the reds, I have a set of 96 Jugs that are going on in the winter, Black Diamond cut, I love the chrome and what it does to the paint scheme. I will Have a hard time finding balance on the right side with the chrome.

A Local LEO here has a Bead blaster here, that is willing to do the dirty work for me, Then I could just send them up the road to be dipped, and bake the powder coat on them as well, yes I am still stuck, 39MM lowers in chrome I see can be had for around a buck and a half.


Thanks for the kudos on the ride all, keep the suggestions coming, Good bad or indifferent, That's what I like about this place. You can never be wrong here, just different
