Don,
       Can you do the picture under your post thingy like d00d does so I don't have to go looking for the page the pics are on. This thread is getting as long as the MV one and it takes me forever to go back and look at something someone mentions that I missed when you first posted the pics.

Thanks

Hey! Don
I might get shot for this, but what the hell I really think that you need to change the Air cleaner back to Chrome, Those colored heads are so beautiful and your cover takes away from it. Just my two cents [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

Gary, the texts are wrong buddy.  Temptation is not evil.  It is merely a teaching tool offering guidance through the happy places in our lives.  It's ok; listen to the voices:


Voices: D00d needs orange jugs, D00d needs diamond cut, Wifey will see such outstanding parts and think FireD00d is a stud whose body should be ravaged for hours and hours.  D00d needs orange jugs.

......   Maybe even just a round chrome lid over the filter itself but not any larger; to show even more of the heads and jugs?  

Thanks guys.  Just when I thought I was done  [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif] .
Don,
That's what I was thinking. Something similar to what Grover had (if I remember correctly he had the open filter with just the chrome cover on it) would really show off the diamond cut & powder coat. But I didn't want to say anything, because as it is now it's tempting me too much. [smiley=nervous.gif] ;D

Oh, thanks A LOT  ;D [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif] .

This idea really had just never popped in to my head.  Am suffering a "brand new thought."  Without actually seeing any parts up against the bike my first thoughts are that I think I'd like the flamed cover currently there more than chrome cover the same size.  I think they'd be more complementary to each other and that the large chrome cover would be different without actually making a positive contrast.  Not sure. But it'll be easy enough to see and find out for sure.

The thought of a the little cover, however, I do find a lot more intriguing.  I don't remember what was on Mark's bike for an air cleaner cover so will have to go find a photo someplace.  My only initial concern/consideration going this way, however, is that all the mechanicals behind are much more exposed.  The Zippers intake mates to the Zippers air cleaner housing.  While I did not compare side by side they said the units were wholly different.  So something like that chrome cover Harley recently released to hide what's behind the air filter likely would not work.  Losing the football might make a lot of stuff that isn't as attractive much more exposed than I'd wish it to be.

Damn, decisions decisions.... The fun never stops. [smiley=drink.gif]

The voices in my head will not be as loud as the voices of the "wifey".....
"
 [smiley=zwtf.gif] are you doing???? [smiley=nixweiss.gif] I thought you weren't getting anything else for your bike, at least while you couldn't ride it."

And as Hubbard would say......

There endeth the lesson. [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]
