Thanks man. The bike used to be black. I had the tins sprayed in the silver blue paint which is actually a 60's GM color. Decided to leave the side covers black to give it some duo-glide flavor (like the duo glide oil bags were)

Mine started life as an 03 Classic, went with a heavy pearl base repaint, tasteful powdercoating in lieu of chrome, lowered frot and rear, Rinehart True Dual system, Mustang Nostalgic seat with backrest and were almost there on the removal of chrome.

Future mods are an Eliminator to clean up the rear fender, taking engine covers off and redoing them in gloss black along with Wild1 1.25" bars in black.

Nice to see so many great looking bikes in the thread.
