Default Winter Makeover on my Nightster

I figured I would come ***** my bike over here too. I have been working on my bike for the past few months and I just now got everything buttoned up on it. Enjoy!
How she did look


Getting her naked


Acquiring parts
Thunderheader

Frisco Bars from Biltwell


Working on the paint
Undercoat and graphics laid out


Sanding the paint down and reclearing


Paint all done



All put back together



And a couple of pretty shots




I've still a few things to do like an open breather and tuner. Just got to bring my poor bank account back to life first.

Very Cool, you did a real nice job on that, great work. That's what's fun about Spring time, watching everybody roll out their makeovers.

Is the Black Micro Flake?

It's actually a color for a Dodge car. I don't remember the actual name off the top my head. But yeah it has a pearl to it that really comes to life in the sun.
