Well, got the cam cover on today when I did my oil change, still need to change out that timing cover
(the guy before me liked to rest his heel on it). Getting there slowly but surely, gonna try to get the trans covers swapped next time I change the trans fluid.

Default Blackened...

Blacked out the forks and bells, engine and saddlebag guards, exhaust, rear turn signals and taillight, a/c cover, timing cover, clutch cover, horn cover, handlebars, bought some black mirors.... and the bike itself started out white.

Did you powdercoat or paint the saddlebag hinges? Where did you find black rivets?

The hinges are rattle can bed liner from Auto Zone and I replaced the rivets with black allen head bolts from Ace Hardware. Also used the spray on bedliner when I rebuilt the calipers and on the fender skirt with the same type of black bolts.
