Did some powder coating to the wheels and front end. Added Pirelli Night Dragons. What a difference. Being a skeptic I am truely impressed with the much better ride and handling. They did their homework on these. What a change from the stock Dunlops. Sorry for the bad pics.

They are actually Harley orange trim rings. I have matching burnt orange metalflake buttons on the seat and orange spark plug wires. There is also a black and orange whip on the left side. The pictures suck, they make the orange look red.

Makes me wonder how the red on the rims would look with whitewalls?

I like the exhaust and the overall direction, good job.

Had my tank painted without the logo a 2 years ago. I've ran a few different ideas but think current will stick. It's been on since Biketoberfest. I talked to a guy about cutting me a real badge - not sure if it's worth the $.

Holy chrome Batman! Just kidding Coleman. It's great how everybody puts a unique spin on their Lo. No cookie cutter bikes here. Well except for the guys who haven't gotten busy on their mods yet.
