FLHTCU 2012

 

Black sux in anyway shape or form, sorry, just me.

 

My thoughts exactly! Don't forget the engine guards, fender struts...... Looking good

 

Latest round of PC included tank console, saddlebag supports, front and rear floorboards, foot controls, and air filter cover.

Next up is gauge bezel covers and ignition switch cover. Still undecided on exhaust/engine at this point.

 

Hey GASMAN, now that its been a couple years, can you tell us how the gloss black powder coating of the exhaust shields held up over time?
Thanks

 

Made some more progress. I am going to do the engine next year. The exhaust ended up burning the powder coating off at the joint where the cans meet the head pipe. I'm going to redo it.... lasted me about a year. Next fall I'm going to redo my build. This is the budget build that I had to downgrade to due to moving and selling and buying a house in the middle of the build. I'm pleased with how it turned out this go 'round.... but next year I'm doing a full body kit, side dump exhaust, lots of powder coating, engine performance (cams, tune, etc.) and possibly a 30 front wheel.

 

The black and grey do look very nice together.

 

also added a raked headlight bezel since this pic was taken. Rain and cold have made my bike a garage decoration since I picked it up. Definitely going to be changing out the floor boards and levers soon as well.
