Rocket Touring 2008
Last few months has been nothing but exciting! Shipping parts from US, UK and China to personalise a used '08 Rocket Touring that I bought. Obviously there were challenges here and there but finally it's still done up to what I've hoped for. 1) Resprayed with hypershift paint, 2) lowered with 444 11.5 progressive and custom seat, 3) @DEcosse keyless ignition and pdm60, 4) Ramair Filter, 5) @HansO tune, 6) Avon Tyres and 7) Ceramic Coating for paint protection...

Now... Simply can wait to go to work and knock off from work just so that I could ride my bike.

I'm now just seriously considering to blackout my bike a little, not a big fan of chrome parts.

The paint looks nice! Don´t loose too much chrome.

Wow what a huge license plate and even one in front. Wonder how the authorities in Finland haven´t figured that out, yet??
 
Yeah, keep the chrome. With all that color, chrome will look black in the right light. Plus it sets off the colors and gives the bike some balance.
 
Ok... Seems like I should keep the chrome for now. Maybe it will grow on me.

On a side note, totally forgot to thank @Joesmoe who never fail to try answer my questions and @Trirocket3 for linking me up with pretech.

Hey @laraza, would you mind sharing how did you blackout the parts? Plasti dip? Hmmm probably not since they still look quite shiny.
