No powder coating .... rubbed back the complete front end and painted using a special high durable 2 pak gloss black paint.

Latest on my Breakout build .....



Front Fender, Tank and center console trim finished and fitted ....



Rear Fender still going through final fit n finish process .... should be ready for paint by the end of this week.

SE 204 Cam Kit got installed and sounds very lumpy even with stock exhaust ...

I've ordered the Edge Cut Rear Sprocket, V&H 2-2 Big Radius, SE Heavy Breather Intake, Custom 1.5" Diameter Drag Handle Bar and 1.0" Riser Extensions.

Video of my BO on the back of the tow truck this morning ....

What center console is that?? I love it! I've wanted something like that since day 1 of owning mine. Looking great, can't wait to see it all finished

You said you didn't pc the triple tree but used a paint; did you paint it on the fork or remove it all and paint it separately? I'm with Harley_Charley in wondering how much trouble it is to get all that off.

That's what I thought it looked like, but I thought I saw in another thread where it didn't fit right on the Breakout tank? Maybe I need to revisit/find that page again. It looks awesome on there.

I remember someone mentioning that the top hole did not line up correctly so some sort of bracket had to be made to adapt it.

That was me .... Had to weld a custom bracket off the fuel sender cover with a counter sunk fixing bolt to hold the Blackline Tank Trim. I'll take a pic of what the fixing bracket looks like when I get the bike back ...

Please do. I would love to see it. I am probably just going to powder coat the stock dash black.
