Re:Christmas in April 3 Years, 9 Months ago  
Nothing like a Kuryakyn Christmas. I like those flame pushrod covers. I saw a pair on a roadie at the Leesburg bikefest last weekend that were red. I'd like to find a pair to go with my red star.

I would say I would paint you a set, but honestly you would need to go with powder coating for a long term fisnish. But I'm sure it would look good.

Re:Christmas in April 3 Years, 9 Months ago  
I love all the pieces, they look great and were easy to install. I also got the 18" 1.5" fat bar ape hanges installed and I put on a set of chrome billet spike grips like these....


Now everything is chromed out on the bars and it looks nice.
