I'm buying a Xbones in the next few days and mine will have that mod right away. They had 2 xbones on the showroom, one where they put on the black
covers from a Night Train I believe and it looked so much better. The aluminum just looks to cheap.

yeah, i have the same thought. they scratched my outter primary when the changed my engine and i asked them to replace it with the black...they did say it was the same as the night train...i would like to see pics of the right side of a bike with the rocker box, and cam housing and trans cover done tho. also wondering what the costs involved with those items....i am tight with cash right now and the wife wants new helmets to match the black denim paint...[&:]

Good question. Something I'll have to ask when I continue negotiating with them. I'm guessing that is not including the installation.

Sorry, gave you a bad quote. Total for the blacked out parts installed is around $700. Not sure if i'll do it now.

SE, look at the XBone pictures in the new Parts and Accessories Spring Supplement. They show both sides of the bike with the black wrinkle parts.
