I'm just wondering if I'm the last person on earth that still likes chrome.

I guess we're a dying breed.
I hate chrome

I don't have much chrome, but I'm working on more.

I love Chrome but I am honestly about done with putting chrome on mine. I just have a few pieces left i want to do and trying to keep some black on it as well. Nothing like black and chrome!

Love the blacked out look as well. If I would of got something with a black motor I would of went mainly blacked out with a touch of chrome here and there.

Default chrome

Never thought I would say it but, I think chrome is easier to keep clean. If you keep it clean, it is easy to clean.
Honestly, buying a Harley Davidson is a down payment for its accessories.

I love chrome, but just like black more!

But, you have to think about it this way....... yeah, we see a sh!tload of blacked out bikes on these forums. But how often do you see them on the road, or in person. Every bike show I've been too, I'd only see a handful of blacked out bikes out of hundreds of chrome bikes. So, I guess I'm a rarity down here in south Florida... you see it here on the forums a lot because well, we only makes up a VERY small percentage of the riders out there. Did that make sense?

It is gaudy. Mostly used by posers and poor urban bikers. Just wish I hadn't rubbed and polished all the black off mine.

chrome seems the old way. it is cool. I do like chrome. but I hate that everyone is turning to black. I have been blacking stuff out for years, now it is the fad. i have always loved black. now just because it is what EVERYONE is doing i am pondering going back to the good old chrome
