That's actually a good idea for a new forum: "Black/Chrome Exchange."

Please don't beat me on this, general chatting and my curiosity.
I painted mine black and have powdercoated everything I can, I like it that way but lately I have been thinking of going with a contrasting color on my tins, I have even powdercoated the wheels, mostly because I hate to clean and polish my bike, I would rather ride it. It is all a matter of choice and one of the reason people buy Harleys to begin with to make them their own! and wait until the fork legs start pitting and the cheap chrome starts peeling

Black matches all my clothes.

A black Dyna look a bit retro hotrod. Other models should not be black.

My other bike has an exotic paint job and lots of chrome. It is also a hardtail chopper.
I just wanted some contrast.

I'll put pictures up soon as I'm happy with everything. Recognize that seat? I got the deluxe tanklift from dk and the seat isnt snug in the front. I'm going to remove the lift and see how that feels. I doesn't do anything for my fuel gauge anyway.

I like that look. Are you not running any heat shields on your head pipes?
