I also have the full chrome rear including splash guard.&nbsp\\; I ride only 1/4 of the time with detachable saddlebags but prefer the look without them.&nbsp\\; It goes with the reset of the chrome in the front.

I would like the chrome swing arm, but too much $$$.&nbsp\\; So I got the Kury Chrome swing arm covers with the lighted phantom covers and boomerang covers.&nbsp\\; I really like the look.&nbsp\\; Chrome for less $$ and free installation in Daytona.&nbsp\\;

Chrome swingarm, chrome brake calipers, chrome brake rotors, chrome sprocket...go for it! Put that together with a custom paint job and as you already said, who cares what&nbsp\\;the boys think, so long as you like it.

one thing I don't like about my chrome swing arm is that brake dust will atack the chrome and pit it if you don't keep after it
