I just re-painted the finned head bolt bridges and derby, timer, and inspection covers I bought from Bradley (thanks Bradley, they're great), as well as the gas cap, stock seat mounting tab, and air cleaner cover. I used Rustoleum textured black on the engine pieces and Krylon flat black on the gas cap and seat mounting tab. I hit everything with a wire wheel and then primed with Rustoleum gray primer before the top coats. It looks really good in person, IMO. With the black slipons, header tape, forward controls and engine guard, the whole look of the bike is really coming together for me. I'm going to add some nicer black grips and pegs next, and maybe I'll paint the headlight trim ring black (but I might have to keep it as is to balance the goofy silver oil dipstick). Oh, and I'll add black progressives soon.

I'm sorry but I can't dig a crash bar on a Nightster or any Sportster for that matter. Help me out, why do you want that?&nbsp\\;

Bike looks great!!! Good work!!!!...... Now.... I agree completely with Ric27.... Please remove the crash bar.... And just crash with some dignity [8D]

 

Nice scoot sancho

 

Thanks guys. I ride on roads with lots of gravel, and the guard makes me more comfortable. You'd really be appalled by the Sundowner and sissy bar for the rare wife ride-along. Even I think that's fugly. . . .
