Default Blingalitis

Well, it's finally happened: there's nothing left on this '04 1200C to chrome. This is not a disease that Nightster owners need to worry about catching. While it has won three 1st-in-class, all this chrome doesn't make it a show bike. It's a very serious addiction, but Blingalitiscan befun. I did the same sort of thing to a Corvette I owned and within six months sold it. But this thing is a lot more fun to ride, so maybe I'll keep it a while longer.
