Picked up an '02 Fatboy last fall... been "tweakin' it" as the budget has allowed over the winter.Money's been pretty well spent and it's almost riding season here, considering a quick
do-it-myself modification... painting the inner wheels (textured aluminum) gloss black. Anyone done this with any success? How'd it look? I'd like to try it w/ a good gloss spray paint & not a lot of expense as new wheels are on the list in the (hopefully) not too distant future. Thoughts or tips?
thanks, Rando

 

I know someone has done it but I don't remember their user name. They had it done at a bodyshop if I remember correctly.

 

well if ya find how its done and do it post some pics would be interested in seeing them!Thx

 

I did the wheels and driveshaft on a Valkyrie I had a few years back with a paint called Hammered. Used gloss black, but it dries with a kind of silver tint to it. It sort of looks like heavy orange peel when it dries, really a different textured look.
