Probably not. The bike's ride is a lot worse now but I'm going for that old school look.

Your ride looks awesome, I love that fender.

I did get that horn cover off and sprayed it with plastidip. It turned out pretty good and blends in with the rest of the engine pretty well. I also did the AC cover but when I went to screw it back on, the screw messed it up so I had to respray it. Guess I'll have to take a razor and trim out the middle part so it doesn't happen again. The trim ring on the headlamp was sprayed as well but it didn't turn out that great, it was kinda tricky to do since it's curved. I'll probably just buy the gloss black one eventually or give it another try since it just peels right off.

Ahh okay, we do have a local powder coat shop that I'll check into later down the road but for now, this will do.
