Before and after Harley

Got my painting done on the Harley Deuce and got pretty much everything repaired. Also got rid of all the "I`m A Poster Child For HD" crap.  :)

Before


After




Resized to fit. :)

Thanks. Yea, I broke down and painted it myself so I could either screw it up or get what I wanted.
I still have a couple of weeks before I can rub it down and polish it, but I`m pretty satisfied with it......................and.. .......the sun is shining and I`m ready to ride. :)

No matter how much you pimp up a Harley you are still stuck with one remaining situation. It's still a Harley.  :(






:p



Nice job on the paint there!

Nice job.  Much cleaner looking bike, and I agree with the skill in applying the heavy flake.  


I'm more a bolt on the "farkle" kind of rider.  Must be functional, but still try to look nice.  

Also, I prefer Victory to Harley, but that's mostly from an engineering standpoint.

'05 Victory Hammer


One day I'll get pulled over about the plate.... not correct for Colorado, but so far, so good.  Plus it shows off that meaty back tire.  

MBW LED turn signals, and lot's of Kuryken replacements for pegs and grips.

Nice bikes both. I'd hate to have to keep all that chrome clean though!

Tedrbr: I'm not very familiar with Victory as they don't seemt to sell them down here. What is it about the engineering that you prefer?

I like V-twins mtself but I prefer something sportier :)



It's more or less stock right now but I'll be changing the exhaust and having the fuelling tweaked in the near future. Race glass for track days and suspension work are also on the cards.
