Duracell paint project?
« on: January 18, 2010, 12:27:27 PM »

I've been thinking that one of my winter projects could be to change the paint of my lowers on my Duracell from Crystal Copper to Black Onyx and possibly add a little Black Onyx to the Tour Pack as well???  I've always thought that it may look better this way and certainly would make it more unique.

Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on what they think it'll look like?  :nixweiss:
It would be great if someone has already done this to their Duracell and can post the pics to give me an idea.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can lend.


Take care,
Grizzly

I think it would look good with more black. Especially the tourPak. From the factory too much copper for my taste.

I think if you know someone, or a dealer with a black lower, borrow it. After you put it on, you may not like it.
As far as the tour pack, I think leave it the same. I don't think the flow lines will look right.

Tourpack could use some black, I'm afraid the black lowers may be to much. How about some sort of accent in black on the lowers that flows with the rest of the black?  Nice bike as is, but it is nice to personalize.
