I may want some chrome
#31
Lots of opinions on this subject, just like I thought there would be. I'll probably end up leaving it anyways, don't have the money to drop on parts now anyways but just bored so I've been thinking. Another idea I've been kicking around is powdercoating my outer primary cover gloss black but I don't know if I want to much more gloss. What I really need is another bike so I stop messing with this one!
ye thats the trouble, ive always had something thats been a project, whether it was a car or a bike, its always needed something doing at it to get it the way i want it. i have a small list of what i wana do to my harley, but i know for a fact when that list is done and i have my perfect bike, im gonna be thinkin "what else can i do, what else can i spend a little money on, just for the sake of it". id go with ur instincts and save a little money to buy another project, just keep this harley as it is and ride the f*ck out of it.

I just added some chrome. . . my left mirror went south, wouldn't stay adjusted. Replaced my mirrors with the chrome "Script" teardrop mirrors. Man, these are heavy-duty mirrors. A bit more visible range and solid. Not sure I wanted to pay 100 bucks, but these are not going to rattle out of adjustment, and they do dress up the front end.

I've been thinking a lot lately about adding some chrome to my bike. This is pretty much against how I wanted my bike to look when I first got it but the more I think about it the more I want to do it. I only want to do some on the engine. Basically the HD chrome engine kit. Rocker boxes, cam cover, transmission covers, and outer primary. Everything else will stay black. Am I nuts, do you guys think it would look good or am I messing with something for no reason. Opinions needed and welcomed.

Vic -- it seems the more black I add the further I want to go with it. Even if just the rocker boxes.... that would be an improvement. I'm looking for a balance between chrome and black... and I think in order for it to look balanced there really needs to be more black than chrome because chrome is so... BRIGHT... I guess is the way I'd put it.
