Congrats on the new bike man. Black would look great with that blue. Funny thing is the misconception that black is cheaper than chrome. From my experience.... IT"S NOT!! Good luck and ride safe!

Red scotch brite and some black paint can work wonders. Cheap and easy. VHT Hi temp on the exhaust, appliance epoxy for the shiny black.
