Thanks for all the feedback and questions to you all!
You helped me get out of being a "Hang Around" to a "Prospect" in these last few minutes....
Did I pass my initiation?

Can't wait to get pics of all three Deluxe's.

As for her reaction-I have been keeping the b ike covered in the garage and she usually never sets foot in the garage unless I am in there.

I'm impressed. Fantastic job..I'll be curious to see a side mount plate..If you go that route you can get the softbrake tombstone that eliminates the plate bracket.

Who do you guys use for powder coating? I'm just down the road in MA and will be looking for a good local coater for my winter project
Thanks hspring03...I'll look for the number...bit early this a.m.
Cool, Thanks [8D]
Hey there,
The name of the company is Extreme Powder Coating and they are in Merrimack, NH. About 1 mile from Exit 11 off Rt. 3/Everett Tpk.
Here's their link: http://extremepickup.com/
They did all our powdercoating on CNC Wheel Guy's Deluxe and my engine guard in gloss black.
Our friend, BB06FLHX, had his wife'spowdercoat in flat black which looks really cool!
When you call, you'll speak to either Chris (owner) or Jerry.
They also sprayed the bedliner of my Silverado and did a prestine job.
Thanks for the info....putting the link in my favorites

Okay. I finally posted the videos to my website. I am not sure if this is going to work right, but here goes:

Chrome Lady's deluxe after assembly - before first ride:

First ride out of driveway, went slow to break in the polished rotors - didn't stop too easily:
http://www.allchevynova.com/movies/MOV02489.MPG

Doing more practices stops:
http://www.allchevynova.com/movies/MOV02490.MPG

Finally - a drive-by that you can't see much, but sounded nice:
http://www.allchevynova.com/movies/MOV02492.MPG

Please let me know if it takes a while to load. I am new to this video thing. Haven't edited before either so these are virgins.
