I vaguely remember them doing this finish on the V-rod?? It fits that platform better imho.

Eeeeh. I dunno. I think they should have gone for the original look
Just used the Heritage headlamp & tins. (Original Fatboy front fender)
The original wheels too (or maybe those slotted ones)
And the EXACT original color & emblems.

That would have been an icon.

I could go for it.

There's a YouTube video from Harley showing the bike.. It's not all that 'chromy". The tank and fenders look more grey than chrome.

The tank and fenders look like chrome in the video, but they kept jumping from the original to the new bike.

I don`t get it, the standard Fat Boy is Grey...But the "Grey Ghost" is chrome....

The video starts out with the 1990 Fat Boy. Toward the end you can see the 2025 with the 1990 in the background. The 2025 looks chrome to me in comparison to the 1990.
