Sticking to chrome imo will still look sharp. I myself have all winter to decide to black out or not. As my parts just started rolling in for dress up...the chrome accents are starting to grow on me. It's all about balance and flow imo. Fat chrome headlight and small light rims on black housing as an example.

My Lo is much more comfortable on long rides with apes.... when people see them they always ask if it's uncomfortable.. to which I reply.. "It's more comfortable now, it's like sitting in a Lazy Boy with apes"

I actually looked at this bike before buying my 2012. But i got a better deal at a differant dealer on a new 12 then they wanted for that 11. The apes were pretty comfortable. Not sure what size they were but im ging 14 or 16 on my lo

I know, right?? 20 years at this company and now it's all over but the crying... my friend and I are trying to start our own business... we think it would be a big success but our biggest problem right now is finding capital to get started.. no one wants to lend to startups.. even though we'll basically be doing what we've been doing here for this bank... so we've got lots of experience..
