I normally don't like the black powdercoated finish but, I have to admit I really like what you guys have done.&nbsp\\;I especially like your wheels Mike, that red pinstripe and the chrome spokes really make them stand out.
&nbsp\\;
I just have one question, how is cleaning the bike now that you powdercoated it?&nbsp\\; Is it easier/harder to clean or keep clean than the standard chrome? I know it's off topic, just curious.

I try to keep it covered in the garage during the week because of the dust, but,&nbsp\\;I really think in the long run the black is easier than chrome. IMHO.

I hate black bikes but everyone knows their faster when the proper wax is used.

How difficult was it to take off your passing lamps and rear turn signal bar to get powdercoated?
