Default Chrome Pulley - for touring Cush Drive. anyone?

This post is primarily aimed at FLH guys who run 2 into 1 systems or 2 into 2 right side only systems.

I'm on my 4th bagger in 20 years and I've always set up my bikes with two into one systems in the past and tpically I get the lower Chrome belt guard and a chrome pulley cover and or a chrome pulley. I have not owned a modern dresser since HD has changed to the isolated cush Drive pulley system and I'm not seeing many options with regard to Chrome pulleys other than having it plated by a custom shop. Platers, ***** Shiny and Sport Chrome both offer it for around $180 with Exchange.

Anyway I have just cobbled-together my DIY two into one system and I'm ready to get started on my project, wondering if anyone here has ventured down this path with a chrome pulley whether it be one of the platers mentioned here, possibly the Performance Machine model or another.

Thanks, Bone

https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...rear-disc.html Consensus on this recent thread is most don’t chrome rear sprocket or rotor on baggers.

Yeah I decided against it. Can’t justify the cost for something that won’t be seen.

My indy uses ***** Shiny for everything. Sent my stocker off for a chrome one and it is flawless and can definitely be seen especially when riding. Just one of those details ya know.

99% of bagger riders don’t even bend down to clean their rear rim.
I once owned a cool little bar hopping 08 Dyna Wideglide and put on a chrome cover on the sprocket.
Huge upgrade.
Saddle bagged touring bikes with anything modified below the bags is really a moot point.
Spend money in places that are easily seen.
