Bike looks great man. Who do use for your powder and is the first time you have used them? Not trying to be nosy, but I'm right down the road and I'm looking for a good powder coater. Thanks

the majority of what you see was done by joe at the powder pro, he did a great job, the forward controls and were done by a local guy, they did a great job on them also. they are some friends of mine. they just dont have the magic like joe though. your bike looks nice, whats left to powder the trees?

Looks reall good! You had 11" Progressives before, and now you have 12" shocks are they Progressives also? They almost look like stock FatBob shocks but its hard to tell from the pic...

and that's funny that you say that because I'm thinking of trying to wet sand the silver stripe off of my tank then reclear,that is if I can do it without breaking through the color !?? I like the solid black ,but at least the stripe is silver, goes with the black and chrome theme I'm going for !!

I think I have enough black, but some of what I've done is paint and it is not durable enough so I think I'm going with powder in the fall on parts that see too much abuse for paint.

ya i stripped a ton of black off this year. went to some chrome, I dunno felt like i was not really into it any more. i just about have the balance I want, I am waiting on chrome levers, and currently am cruising ebay for some mirrors i can actually see out of.
Rmerdcars we should have just traded tanks! I will let you know on them soon.
