Funny how every one has a different idea of what old school is, I guess it depends on how old a school you went to. I.E 50s=bober style,60s-70s chopper style. The flat black thing is a spin off of the 50s rat rod cars and usually was only a primer till they could afford a real paint job.Plenty of old bikes out there with paint and chrome, hell, some of them even had shocks.Kids my sons age think anything that doesn't come with a fairing is old school.

rather than use the term "old school" that does get thrown around alot, I call my bike "rat" its black with grey flames hand drawn, not perfect flames. joes is about to powder coat some more black, black wrapped pipes, just what I wanted, you can call your bike anything you want. I would have NEVER bought a harley that was carbed "old school" I like to ride, not change plugs, add oil, rebuild every winter, push start, carry a tool bag. there is a reason harleys have evolved to what there are today, reliable, good looking comfortable bikes. I suggest that you buy a six pack of your favorite beer, and sit down and have a long invisioning envisioning talk with your bike, and see where you go from there. just my take on it brother.
