Default Pin striping

Today I finally had my cousin come over and do some pin striping on my 2016 FXDLS. Love how it turned out. Some before, action, and after shots.

Excellent work! I had my superglide striped 21 or 22 years ago by "Cars& Stripes." Held up well over the years. Haven't thought about the FXDL getting striped, but might now after seeing your results.

Stupid question: do people normally have a clear coat done once the pinstripes are put on? I honestly have no idea.

I'm thinking about having pinstriping done on my own bike.

Naw, no need unless you just want all the extra work.

VERY VERY nice work! My only mild suggestion (only offering because she has some great skills and I think it would help) is the signature is a little big for some folks. Alot of old timers have a mon-nick-or (the auto correct is moronic and thinks is a bad word) or initial set that identifies them, its cleaner and discrete.. I really love the work she did but my bike I just woulda wanted the sig a bit smaller..

Again, Nice job..

Thanks everyone. Pretty happy with how it turned out.

As far as the sig, since she is family I told her to do a good size one. If she wasn't I wouldn't have wanted a big one like that either.
