Default Memphis Shades Batwing - Striped

I wanted to tie the fairing in with the bike ('06 FLSTCI) but didn't want to try to make it look like an Ultra, so I had a local artist stripe it for me. The bike is vivid black and fire red pearl, with a kind of orange-y pinstripe separating them. He picked up that color for the primary stripe, and silver and gray from the Harley logo on the tank for the secondary stripes. Here's the final result. Next up: A set of BB Reproductions saddlebags.

The seat, in case anyone's interested, is a Corbin solo I had redone by Mean City Cycles, who get two thumbs up for a terrific job.

Good idea! The striping and fairing tie in well with the bike.
