Default Are you addicted to CHROME?

Just for fun I have started a Facebook group for those of us that are addicted to chrome. It has just started and would like to see more of us and discuss chrome related stuff or scooters in general. Thanks for looking

Default Admission of an addict!

Yes I have to admit I too am an addict! Everytime I get a new bike, I say I'm not chroming it out, sucks to clean and just yesterday local Harley dealer had some 30% off specials and out the door I walked with full hands!! It's worse than drugs or drinking!! I'm short on $money$ to pay bills, but buy usless chrome like it's life support.

I don't think so. I bought my '03 in February of that year and haven't added anything shiny, other than to change out the mirrors and slip-on exhaust. It seems to ride just fine without excess shiny bits weighing it down.
