I have a thing for black bikes.

My old Nightster (started the obsession)



My Bob (current state) Tried for a mix of black and chrome and black is winning. Loved the Nightster but wanted a big twin and 6 speed.



My bro's 09 Roadking I put together for him.

 

Tweakin' what did you do with your chrome pipe? It was a Big Radius 2 into 1 right?

 

1. About a year ago I thought...."WHy can't I have small throw-overs that go under my seat?" I met member 2000Dyna at a car/bike show in KC, gave him my idea / some antique store leather and he made them for me. He now sells them on his website. I forgot the website but you can PM him. PICS

2. I kept the "frame-like" parts (strut covers, lower legs, rear shocks. sissy bar, handle bars) gloss black and the "sheet metal-like" parts (pipes, horn cover)denim black. I figured if I went ALL denim, the bike would fade into blah-ness. It sounds wierd, but the "frame-like" parts all seem to flow together nicely.

 

There have been two on the dealer floor here in Fargo in the last year, so there must be millions...

 

I am keeping the BR 2-1 incase I want to return to the shine.

 

Not ALL black, but blacked out some....

 

Wheels next and rear springs but then thats enough blacking out for me : )

 

Dude, you had achieved the perfect balance of black and chrome. Better than all others! Please change it back. Hell, I'll buy your black pipes if I have to.
