LOL, how come Harley parts always seem to be given names like "wild 1", or "brawler", and you never see parts called "pretty petunia"?

Did the springer come black up front or did you powdercoat it?

What color you gonna spray her down with? I liked the wine color, you dont see alot of those colored bikes around.
Yep standard black on an o5 fl springer

I'm going to make it 2 tone, I'm going to do an antique white with gold pearl on top but leave the black cherry on the bottom

Hope it looks in person as it does in my head...

Finally got the paint done on the bike. heres a sneak peak. I still have to install the hardbags, I had got some Ness hardbag latches, and they suck ***, they keep over extending and binding up. NOT impressed. Hopefully pick up a set of HD ones next week.

I've only ever seen one other Vicla around here, and most people tell me they've never seen any others. A few other riders I've ran into will recognize the "SoCal" style and comment.
