I have been ordering parts so they will be there when I get home in a few weeks, and I am trying to get rid of some chrome. I am going to use that "chrome delete package", I like it.

The best way to keep your panties from getting bunched up is to not wear any.

Hell if I know. I loves me some black AND chrome. But this thread does give me a chance to post a huge picture of my bike.

For some strange reason, A blacked out bike to me, is a bike that is not 'shiny', i.e., little chrome and flat black, I have seen a Night Train on the NT Picture thread that looks ridiculously black and rugged, the paint has red and maybe yellow, but the rest of the bike is FLAT black and looks bad *** .
That is just me, gloss black is not 'black out' ..
I believe my bike to be a 'shiny' bitch , def. not a black out tough look.

Klf your bike is super blacked out. It's my interpretation. Black lowers, headlight ring, rims. Wtf? It's too much black!

Btw the NT you're referring to is awesome! Assuming it's the Evo NT. and my bike is flat black, little shine at all. Much more manly than a Prius!

My definition of "blacked out" is changing all/some normally chrome/polished parts of the bike to black, whether gloss or flat. "Murdered out" is ALLLLLL dark black in my opinion, and is more sinister looking.

I consider my bike blacked out although there is some chrome/polished left, some of which will be addressed next winter.
