I realize this is an old thread but it's the first time I've seen the original video of the blacked out Switchback...

Anyone notice the world's smallest bitch whip hanging from the rear brake lever?

The Skip Fordice Switchback is a rental bike ...

I notice they did black out the windshield trim ... but, I didn't understand why they didn't disassemble the shocks and powder the lower covers ...

Personally, I kind of like it ... not sure I'd go to quite that much trouble ...

Here's mine, installing black progressive 444 shocks soon then powdercoating the enging flat black. I am gonna leave some chrome to break it up a bit, not big on the murdered out black look.
