Default Big Radius on FLHX???

I know, get what you like the best! I do value the many opinions here and that is why I am asking. I Love the black and think they would go good with the wheels and I would change the air cleaner to a black one, also looking at adding additional black on derby cover etc. However on the flip side, I have a chrome front end, etc.

Thanks from the photo shop, Dennyo and JBaker, awesome job!!

Brett,

thanks for your .02, now I am more confused because they both look good.

So here lies the question, what do you think? Let it fly!! Thanks.

I'm thinking black myself + they have the chrome tips if you order black which is not in the photoshop. I'm buying a set of black ones myself.
