Question Switchback outer primary cover
hello folks,

I have a 3 month old switchback and I noticed that the chrome of the outer primary cover on the left side of the motorcycle is getting very dull.

Just saw a fatboy and noticed that the outer primary cover on that was very shiny.

Are switchbacks;s outer primary covers supposed to be dull? It is not making sense to me.??

Stock switchback outer primary is polished alloy, not chromed. You can fit a chromed cover if you like.

I hit my SB's primary cover with Mother's and a buffing wheel once in a while. A few minutes of work makes a big difference in the look. For what its worth I'm adding a wrinkle black derby cover to break that side up some.
