Looks good, amazing what a difference the little things can make. How do you like the flush mount fuel gage/filler?

Thanks guys, I love the look of the side covers,
Rok, the fill and gauge I like, but a lot of people have problems with them (not accurate, lites not working) but i go by mileage so just went for the look if them.
next up the primary cover then done for the winter (I think)

I have a question regarding painting those side covers...
Has anyone had a problem with the paint getting dull from your legs rubbing on them?

My last bike's covers did this despite keeping a few good coats of wax on them. I was thinking about going black on mine to match the paint on the tins but I didn't want them to turn dull & scratched, so I was considering flat black.

Looks real nice. They should come that way from the factory.
