Lionsm13, go on and git u sum!

Machiavellli, that is one nice softtail in the corral, 2003 H.D. 100th Anniversary Deuce FXSTDI? I still have some chrome blazin' on my bike, but the contrast cut stuff is accentuating quite well! H.D., P.M., Arlen Ness, Roland Sands, Joker, Kurkyan..they are all on the contrast cut mods band wagon.

Its weekend mode Boyz, "get on that bad motor scooter and ride...."

Ride on...

Looks good. A good way to add some flash to a dark bike.

nice bike!

Looks nice - I have been going toward "the dark side" as well and adding on some contrast cut pieces. latest is the PM wheels. dang they are so well made I have ZERO balance weights on the wheels they were 100% true on the roadforce balancer. Well, the Pirelli Diablo meats helped too - perfectly balanced and light weight tires

A lot of nice, well done bikes in this thread!

LA Dog - Nice wheels. Talking to Costal Moto about those same rims for my bike.

Amber2014 - Have you thought about switching that primary cover to gloss black and get the Burst derby cover.
