A couple of months ago I was looking at my '13 Breakout trying to figure out why the front end looked odd. Then it hit me - the black painted lowers just didn't look right. Maybe I'm just old school, but I like the looks of the polished aluminum forks. What to do? I bought some paint remover, pulled my front wheel, and dabbed a small amount of remover in a place I could touch-up if I didn't like the results. What do you know?... Nice shiny aluminum under the black paint! So I stripped all the paint off and coated them with clear lacquer. Now THAT looks more like a real Harley. Pix to show the difference.

 

Wow that's really Harley like.

 

Swapped my black fork sliders for chromed ones a couple of months ago. Even looks better than aluminum

 

Swapped mine with chromed ones as well. I agree they look much better than black ones.

 

IDK....I think those would look a little out of place on some bikes...

 

Not if all the other black parts that definitely look out of place where swapped for nice shiny chrome parts

Wait.....you don't have black sliders on your Rocker, lol.

 

I was too cheap, and the work kept me out of trouble on a rainy day.

 

Never mind, just kiddin'. Good job with those stripped sliders!

 

prefer the black. but yours came out well look nice in the raw.

 

Different strokes, bla, bla, bla... Point is, you did em and they look good! (you need to do a side shot pic)
