Heh, it was a long night last night and I was multitasking as I posted....

I meant to say less is more, not more is less.

But, if you add too much, then more would be less I suppose!

I dunno, I like simple and clean. But then again, I'm the guy that doesn't put stickers on stuff either, like cars and bikes, or my tool chest.....

Thanks for the input everyone. The RKC does look really good stock and I have decided to chrome the front end, and get a chrome fender skirt. Here it is so far:

I have added some chrome to mine...I tend to try to stay within a theme...I prefer the more traditional "V" or Bar and Shield over Flames and Skulls.... However....too much of anything starts to take away from things I think....But it is your bike and you should do what makes YOU happy....

I also am trying to go with the classic look. No skulls, flames or large #1's. Only the bar and shield and "Harley Davidson Motor Company" Watch out Chrome is addictive no matter what you decide on doing.

It's yours Bro, go with it.
Me, I like to stick to a theme, not too busy. All kinds of themes to choose from if you look around. I saw a spread a while back where the Dude's bike was themed with "8 *****" from one end to the other! There is no limit. Maybe something personal to you? There are lots of engravers and the like out there, search and you can see some of their work, my .02.
For me, I like grips, pegs, boards, etc. to flow. Many items are available in "Road King Style" also. Classic looks great on a "Classic".
