Ok this is my problem... It seems that all of bikes that I see around my area and nothing but chrome on end... and I love the look, but im wanting to not just follow the herd and change things up a bit. I was thinking over doing some powdercoating. Black of course!!! Looking at my fork lowers, Triple trees, and my grips, along with my speedo cluster. Everything else on the bike is polished and im having it chromed over the winter... I am not sure if I am making the right decision or not... If anyone could maybe do a photoshop to help me with my problem that would be mighty white of ya!!! Or if anyone has any suggestions those would be taken as well..... Thanks Everyone!!! :2thumbs:

Here is mine with black struts stock from the factory and black pipes. I like the look like the special edition K-9's and Mastiffs.

Yeah that is one good thing about powdercoating.. besides I work with a guy that has his own powdercoating buissness on the side. Ive seen his work and it top notch work...plus its highly discounted for me too.....:2thumbs: But I want to say thanks for all the pics in input on this decision.....:cheers:

Black powdercoat looks great on your bike. Really brings out the paint job.

Well Done!:2thumbs:

Nice pics Lee. I'm considering the powdercoat route for the wheels this winter.

BTW, your bike looks best with Ms. Lisa on it....:2thumbs:
