there is always a small price to pay for looking cool lol lol.

my only dilemma is what color grips to get (chrome or black). I thought since my hand controls are chromed i would go for a little contrast and get black ones (see picture). Or you guys think i should keep them chromed.

as far as the pegs it's the same dilemma. should i go black or stay with chrome?

2nd pic: the black pegs (couldn't find a pic of chromed pegs, but you guys get the idea)
3rd pic: Black grips
4th pic: chrome grips

thanks guys.
what air filter is in the blue rocker?
