Default I Have A Problem, Cannot Stop... PICS

Just pulled Helen off the lift and I have a problem. My issues occur during the winter months and I hope you fine folks can help. Yes I am addicted to chrome, at least my wife thinks so. Love the blacked out look... my car reflects that, but chrome on a Harley; will I ever stop???

Tom,

Very nice scoot, brother. Are you in denial? Your wife is right, you are addicted to chrome. Fortunately, chrome is abundant on this planet. Stand up and say "Hi, my name is Tom and I am addicted to chrome." It will never end.

Where did you get the clamp holding the front plug wire (above the horn mount)? Is it custom or aftermarket?

Winter tends to be a very expensive month. If you can't ride it, buy stuff for it.
