So I guess one of the old sayings I heard as a kid is true, once you go black, you don't go back There are some VERY NICE bikes in this thread.
In all honesty I hadn't planned on this, but I originally wanted a Pewter Denim Street Glide with the intentions to black some of it out. I ended up buying a Vivid Black Street Glide (got a way better deal and newer year). So thinking the chrome really sets the black of the bike off I had no intentions to black out. Well I just bought my first black goodie tonight and I think the transformation has begun.
I bought an FLHX Black shift linkage and now my mind is racing with wants. I wanted to buy the black fin derby cover, but I was concerned how it would look on the chrome primary. I could have swore I saw a pic somewhere but can't find it now. Anyone have input or a picture of this. I am not sure I want to do ALL black everywhere so the primary may stay chrome.
