Default Chrome Forks

Last weekend I finally got the time to install the Chrome Fork Lowers and the Chome uppers on my ride...this morning I took the time to wash that sucker...here it is



Here is a close up of the forks



Here is a shot of some the extras I just "HAD" to put on with lower chrome forks, they included the Chrome H-D MotorCo. Logo Front Axel cover Kit, Chome Front Wheel Spacer Kit, (not really shown), and Chrome Brake Caliper mounting screw covers, and Chrome Fork Axle Retainer nut kit...



Here is a gratuitous shot of my "blonde" motor



Long way from where I started:



Tell me what you think!

Thanks, Skip! When I saw you replied, I started chuckling before I even opened the thread. I figgered you probably would have modified the picture so that it had wrinkle black all over it.

Thanks! Your comment means alot!

The seat is a Corbin Dual Tourer. Awesome seat, wouldn't trade it for anything other than a new one. (or maybe another motorcycle.)

I have the blonde motor too. The chrome front end changes the whole look of the bike.
