Congrats on your new Streetbob. Puling it apart is not too bad but you really need to get a manual. It was the first thing I bought and really comes in handy. I took my turn sigs apart and pull the wires out the back to get them PC'd. Going to look good when your your done. But your never really done.

Congrats and welcome to the forum. If you don't want to take the forks apart try this out. I've been running with this paint for 2 years and it still looks good. And it only cost like $20 for paint and supplies. Also get the factory service manual and you can do anything.

There are pics of the bike back together later on in the thread.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on the new ride!

Jaron gives a good option to PC of the forks.
