Default Blacked Out In Progress Pics
Mine is a work in progress. Had the bike just over a month. The front is complete (with the exception of the 21 I'm going to install) . The left side is complete. And the rear is complete. PYO MBB's are in the garage waiting install. Suppose to be a few days this week in the 60's and I wanted to ride. Probably start next weekend. After that then on to the expensive side. The right side exhaust & air cleaner.

Looks great. I'm liking the cow bells on the forks. Nice contrast instead of all black.

Looks nice. I'm blackening mine out also.. However, I'm going totally black. Everything. I having all my parts powdercoated. Too expensive to piece it out, so I will have to wait awhile until I can afford to do it all at once. I can't wait. Your bike is looking great. I love black.

Very nice. Those headlights are expensive. Was thinking about getting them for my Street Glide but will have to wait until modification round 3.

So far everything I have changed over I have had powder coated with the exception of the cow bells for the front forks. They are the edge cut from HD.
