Dilema?? Thoughts please.

Im not one to ask for opinions, I have a good eye for making my bikes look nice, BUT Im having a tough time deciding on chrome or black lower legs on my RK. Bikes black, thinking lowers would look sharp in black? Im going w/ chrome rims also very soon, so I figured rims might "POP" a little more w/ the black lowers.....I know opinions are like asses, but Im asking to see what majority thinks?

This site needs a setting so people can do a poll
No not the kind ya dance on, i know what 98% of you guys are thinking already

Black lowers. On my shovel head, I put black lowers with a black powder coated rim and chrome spokes with a black hub, Looked really cool.

Well, I'm a big fan of chrome, but the way you put it with the future chrome rims, i could def see the black lowers making the rims pop. Sometimes ya just gotta think outside the box. seems you dont have any problem there. Just my 2 cents though.

+1 Only go black lowers if you've already got black uppers and cowl.

sorry Bro......posted a pic of a bike in the tanks/emblems thread a couple of days ago, meant to post it here as well....forgot (sue me)
I say chrome lowers....but with chrome calipers, chrome wheels, go black....but remember once you go black, you won't go back

(or as I usually say it once on a donkey you'll never ride a honkey)
