OK, I'm back....next pics are old gold forks, then the new silvers....it's really taking on the look I want, I'm going to a lot of effort to ONLY have black and silver (including either powder coating calipers gloss black OR getting them polished).

[raydog]

this one is after I installed the adjustable dogbones (thanks Daniel aka CloudNine Motorsports) and raised the bike 1"

[raydog]

no radiator/hoses or front fender....yet

That is a nice shop that you have there! I like the theme of the bike.

[raydog]

and finally a couple of side shots....it looks incredible badboy and LIGHTWEIGHT in person...I can't wait to finish it and weigh it. Doyle

I think they came standard luster....what blows me away is that when I apply Mothers and wipe off the black with terrycloth (you know the drill) it gets REALLY chromelike. The amazing thing is....it doesn't seem to dull down with use! I mean, sure it gets less shiny but it's so easy to restore the deep shine look. I thought they were going to be really high maintainance to keep up but they're really not....and they really liven up with minimal TLC.
