Harley_Charley the paint was done by Vivvid Dragon Paint. The guy's name is Shadd Ross. He does awesome work. With the oil tank and 4 coats of clear, it was $2200. I talked to several painters and none came close to doing anything like I got as far as details in the paint and they wanted as much or more. Shadd gave me a deal because it was the slow part of the year. So I suggest if you get it done obviously winter time is going to get you the best rates.
If you look above the tag, the belt guard cover bolt on the inside was replaced with a Heartland LED tag light. It is also chrome hard to see in pic, but if you look close you will see it is a little bigger. Also the tag folds into the bike. It also is made by Heartland.
Thanks for all the compliments guys. This bike actually started its life as a Rocker C, but evolved into a Breakout after I installed the CVO Breakout wide glide front end and it hit my fuel tank. That's what started the rest of the conversion. The hardest part was making the indicator lights work.. Different computer system started being used. Long story short, I had to combine two wiring harnesses. Anyway I love the way it turned out. You can't see alot of detail in the paint job because of the glare, but it is a Vivid Dragon Willie G negative ghost flame. It turned out awesome. I will post some more pics once complete with better pics of the paint.
I know at least one of you guys have painted the ignition assembly (grenade mount). I've got it pulled back off again to install my new 50mm throttle body and FuelMoto PV2 and AT- Pro. I want to paint it before it goes back on but it doesn't look like the grenade comes apart from the mount. Am I missing something? I un-did the bolt at the bottom but it still feels like it's all one unit.

Hi jackjr! Just wanna ask...what did you use to mount the solo bag to your swingarm. Leather straps, zipties or a mounting system like the bobber bracket by deadcreekcycles?
