Thanks for doing this JT. Very cool of you! If I had a hot single sister I'd let you date her. lol I think I like the chrome better. I may ditch the blacked out idea.

LOL... Actually, I am happily married. But it's the thought that counts, so thanks. (LOL)

The black does seem to have a somewhat "beefy" look to it, but I agree with you in that if you went that route, you should probably have some more black to tie it all together. The chrome does look nice.

I am trying to figure out if I want to do a lot of chrome or chrome and black. So when I find pictures of something I like, I save them so I can stare at them late at night to try to figure out which way I want to go. I don't remember who this is, but here is a bike I thought was very nice looking, and it looks like that same wheel:

I think I can get away with adding a little black here and there and still go with the all chrome wheels. Maybe even by adding a black knock off for for the wheel. I never wanted to black out my bike completely, just a hint of black here and there.

Toastman also turned me on to good website that I'm going to look into. There are so may options out there it could drive a man crazy....and I'm almost there. LOL

My sisters husband will be glad to hear you're happliy married. LOL

Thanks again, and if you're ever in the Charlotte area let me know, I'll buy you a beer or two.

BTW. My exhaust, AC kit, PC V and True Track were all delivered today. Wasn't expecting them until Tueday or Wednesday. I'm pretty impressed with M&M Cycles (out of Sandusky, OH) http://mandmcycles.com/
They're prices were the best I found and delivery was way ahead of schedule. Too bad I have to be out of town for work all next week....I can't wait to put everything together.

My cousins and I have talked about heading down that way to escape some of the Maine winter; maybe this year but nothing definate on that. But I'm sure we sill some year. A beer sounds cool; I'll keep that in mind.

Man, I wish my orders could arrive earlier than expected; I hate the waiting. And as far as the options out there, yes, It's already driving me (and my wife) crazy! Thanks for the info on M&M cycles. I look forward to seeing some final pics of these winter mods. Good luck and have fun!

Joe

I agree with you regarding the chrome wheel vs the black wheel. I actually like the chrome wheel better. The $3k sounds rough though. You sure you can part with that, G?

Better ask Santa for some more money for Christmas!
