My new Sportster on Steriods

Well kinda but this thing makes my Sportster...(and yes I am keeping it look like something between a race horse and a runway model.

The runway model.




New addition to the family, the Beast.

I tried to clean my wheels up and gave up. I bought another set along with a rear pulley off Ebay. I then dropped them off at Metal Masters in SLC, UT to be bead blasted and mirror polished on the flats.

After I got them back all cleaned up I sprayed the Charcol to the rough.

Not counting the price of the donor wheels it cost me about $350 to have the wheels and rear pulley polished/bead blasted.

It you can have it done...Do it then just keep them up.
