I'm 35. My Dad is just old school. He's been riding Harley-Davidson motorcycles for a long time. He's a retired HD mechanic of 25 years. No doubt he knows what he is talking about. I think it may be just difference between old school and new. I don't know...

I have to go with what your dad said. I tried the black Thunderheader with chrome heat shields for a short time I couldn't warm up to the look. Ended up painting the whole thing black.
