Default Are you a Chromosexual too?

Now we have all heard of heterosexuals, homosexuals, metrosexuals, etc.
But I found a term that I had not heard before and wonder how may others may be 'aflicted' with the same malady.

CHROMOSEXUAL—(krhO-mO-sek-shul)
1. Of, relating to or characterized by a direct desire toward enhancement of additional chrome objects on motorcycles.
2. of, relating to or involving continuous purchases of chrome customization parts and polishing needs.

Are you one too?

More chrome the better. Just can't afford it.

Thats funny, I was just thinking about asking a question about chroming. I want to get Chrome at the hand controls, but I don't want to pay the stealer $349 bucks just for the brake reservoir side. So, does anyone know if I can take both side and get them chromed?

Just say NO to chrome! If you have to polish it to make it look good, it probably doesn't. IMO.

I put as little chrome on my bikes as possible - if its there when I buy the bike I generally leave it or, if I want to replace it, I will do so with chrome, but I will never add additional chrome to my bikes just for the sake of adding chrome. Not that there's anything wrong with it.......

I'm a chrome-a-phobe!!!!!! Less is better. More riding time, less cleanup.
