So I was out enjoying the 70 degree weather this weekend in the panhandle of Florida and stopped in to a new local shop for their grand opening. Long story short I won a $2000 custom paint job for my Lo in their raffle. A little torn on what to do since I love the blacked out look of my bike. Any ideas? I was thinking possible some vintage pin up girl art on the tank and fenders or maybe aircraft nose art to memorialize my Air Force days. What do you guys think? Get the paint job or leave it all flat? I refuse to go shiny. I love the denim black.

Leave it. But, If you put paint on it some where, make sure you run that theme through the whole sled.
Nice win though, good problem to have lol.

I like both of your ideas as long as the denim stays.
Or, you could buy a set of tins and have those painted instead. I like the idea someone had of selling the paint job...then you have some cash to throw back at the bike.

hey i've got another question for this thread which somewhere has probably been asked but heavens to betsy there's 133 pages to this so i can't scroll back through... but..
what do you guys use to clean your engines and really bring out that black?
and i just bought the fender bib from harley and when i put it on i noticed there's alot of white scuffs all over it.. is that normal and can they be buffed out, or should i take it back and get a new one?
