Default New paint is done!
Just got the bike put back together yesterday. We are really happy with the way the paint turned out and the few subtle changes we made. It has a lot of metal flake in it and looks great in the sun. The pictures really do it no justice.

It's an 07 Ultra

Thanks guys! We kinda went out on a limb with the color. The bike use to be black! We were looking for a brighter orange, but this color is very cool. It changes shades in different lighting......it'll go from orange to bronze to peach to gold! Like I said, we're really happy with it.

We slicked up the front fender by removing the bumper and all the Ultra Classic extras and we also removed the rear bumper.
