A note to old forum members...
I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.
Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.
Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.
Well I got them on the bike and now it makes me think about painting the dust boots on the shocks gold also.
As well as the rims, cam cover ends, lower fork tubes and air box covers.
Engine black with gold exhaust?
It never seems to end...

I love photo-chopping things! Here are some quick little mock-ups I did. Also having a black and gold bike I've thought about 'gold-ing' some stuff too. It always come down to how much is too much. Anyways hope this helps you see what your imagining.
Your initial description plus a gold fork brace up top.
With a gold headlight bucket trim.
And with the wheels done. IMO this is too much gold. But hey, you may like the bling
Anyways enjoy. If you (or anyone else for that matter) want to see other options feel free to send me a PM.
NOTE: Hijack is / was unintentional. How well do those shocks work?
I think it looks pretty good this way actually. I like a black exhaust, I think gold looked way to gaudy. Black keeps it functional. The engine also is a nice touch. The silver engine and pipes clashed too much with the black and gold scheme.
You guys are just about reading my mind.
I have the black carbs already and only the edges of the top fins will be gold,
the complete engine will be black with gold fin tips and cam cover end caps.

By George, I think I will do it!!!
Thanks for all of the help! :clap:
