Looks nice. I just did my legs, bells, crash bar, horn, calipers, front turn signals and brackets and air cleaner. I like the struts. Maybe I can do that on mine.

Yes, nice. I've blacked out most of my chrome last winter. All of the trunk and saddlebags supports went too. Once on the bike, you don't even see all the supporting hardware back there, like it disappears

Looks good. I just did my cowbells tonight as a trial run. I plan to do my lowers, nacelle, turn sig buckets, aux. light buckets and several rear end parts like spike has done. I had a decent amount of orange peel that I have to attempt to resolve and some uneven coverage. It was my first shot with the PC gun from Harbor Freight and I must say I think it's worth the $60.

Very nice. I started blacking mine out in '03 and do a little more every year.

This spring its a black D&D Fat Cat 2-1 pipe and probably losing the bag rails.

Nice work. I stripped down my 2009 SG over the last 2 months and did a flat black powder coat on pretty much all the chrome while the cylinders and heads were gone for some performance work.
I cured the pieces in my "home made oven", can't wait to get my electrical bill, haha!
