    So just how loud is it now and how's your hearing in the right ear with it being so much closer to you?

    Default Not looking for trade secrets here but:

    Ice- how do you get that finish on the former chrome? I was going to do powdercoat (Probably krinkle cut) on the last couple pieces of chrome I have left but, I really like that brushed finish you came up with. It looks refined and gives it a quality look.

    Red StotchBrite pads . Sand away . Make sure you go one way when getting close to being done . That way it all looks even .

    Thanks for asking . ICEBOX

    The decision to scrub the chrome off was what made it look different and badass in my opinion. Thanks to Leonard for the suggestion, or should I say just doing it. lol For the record, on the lower chrome piece, under the radiator, I sanded that! Thanks again for ICEBOX's input and hard work.

    Default All I can say is it looks great.

    What did you seal it with? I think I have a project when I get back form Alaska!

    Bikes looking Smooth. Gotta love the brushed metal, and powder coat look.

    Hey IceBox which method did you use for the tach relocator?

    Gotcha! I'm stuck between Yani-Shiki Tach relocator, or mounting it down there. Looks good though!

    Icebox you have badass visions in your mind bro. A project like that has to be seen in your minds eye and then brought reality by a craftsman. And you brother are obviously a craftsman. You're work is amazing! I look forward to drooling over more of your designs!

    I see what I need to do - cool.

    Your bike does look sharp. What did you use for blacking out the parts, paint or that plasic dip stuff?

    Also, how do you like the sideburner? That's the one I want but I'm wondering if they stopped making it.

    Anyway, I layed my bike down so my decission to black out some of it got a lot easier. Plus, I love the look.
