And I must say, that is one slick looking color. You sir, have great taste.

Thanks Jose and TNB. I like that full low profile console from RWD. I may have to talk with them about that.

Thanks for the info. I wanted to try it but my dealer said I could not return it if it did not fit. Can you post some pics of it on your bike and a pic of the hole? I just want to see how it looks. Do you know what the part # is? Thanks.

Honestly, the Rustoleum Truck Bed Liner matches very nicely.. i, personally, screwed mine up pretty bad because I was impatient.. Only did 1 coat, let it dry for a day (it takes like 3), and reinstalled and went for a ride.. Did the brake pedal, shift linkage, shifter arm, several bolts (the brake pedal bolt, the bolts for the shift linkage, and even the acorn nut that holds the horn on).. the bolts all look fine, but everything else, where ever my boot hit it, kinda chipped off. Though the only real reason I even tried it was just to see how it looked. It looks good, therefore, I'm doing a more permanent solution and getting everything powdercoated, and others who have done it properly (3 coats or so, letting it properly dry each time) have had better results.

Can you powder coat the console? I want to get mine done but not sure if I should get it powder coated or paint it. Prefer powder coated.

Yes, I had my console and forks powder coated at the same time.

I (and many others on here) have this mount on my bike. It's the most dramatic, best value ($25) of anything I have put on. Got it the same week I ordered it. Install took 10 minutes.

I can't recommend it strongly enough.
