Default ideas

I have a vivid black 2012 Electra Glide Classic and I have seen some really sweet blue colored bikes out there. I have tossed the idea of getting my bike painted. It would only be 1 color metallic with a few clear coats. I may also change from the decal tank emblem to a metal tank emblem as well. If I go forward with this about how much money can I look to have this done?

The cost to paint a bike varies depending on the type of paint and the painter as much as the weather changes day to day. You need to take the bike to several paint shops and get quotes.
