It is all personal preference. It is your canvas, make it your work of art!

Myself, I have tried to create a balance.

I am a huge fan of blacking out the Dynas, especially the FXDB. If it wasn't so freakin expensive I would be a little further along. Although I do feel like you do need some chrome accents on it, like others have said. Now a softail like the Deluxe I think needs to be chromed out.

Duh Simple!
Too Much Chrome? When no mater how dark your sunglasses are you are so blinded by the reflection you go to sit on the bike and miss! Then when you do finally get your butt onto it you burn your ***! Yep you've gone too far with the chrome brother!

Too much Black? You turn on the headlights and...well it is still dark. You active the brakes and yep can't see the stop light. You can't find where to stick the key without feeling around for the lock... You walk out of the bar (sober of course) and look for your bike and find that you have to feel your way around...after touching the bouncer inappropriately then fondling your buddy's ***, you finally find the seat of your bad *** ride! Yep you might have gone a tad too overboard with the Blackout effect!

Not trying to start anything, but anyone that really believes the blacked out Dyna, with tbars and fairing, has anything to do with SoA needs to do some research. I suggest starting with the thread in this very sub-forum about club/thug/outlaw Dynas.

I like a good balance of both.... shinny black & some chrome.
I feel my FXDC resembles that perfectly.

I like a lot of black with just a hint of chrome...

Here's some old pictures of my wg. It now has a glass black dash and headlight trim. Triple trees, lower forks, and dust covers are next on my list, and then I'm done with the black.

I do have wrinkle black upper/lower rocker covers waiting to be installed...but I'm liking the chrome ones the more black I add to the rest of the bike.
