New sportster checking in....just got myself a 48....finally, dream come true.....where can I paint my tank? Any specialty shop?

 

U got a brand new one or pre-loved?if new,i suggest u keep it as it is,unless u get HDS to send to paint for u,if not it's warranty voided.

 

Aire Pro designs do air brushes paintjob. Look for Shane Chia,he used to ride a fatboy n still riding a bike now. Their prices r not cheap thou. :)

Spray paint also void warranty? Ok, skip....2 yrs later then

 

Haha HDS is crap lah. U know,ur 48 rocker boxes r aluminum rite,doesn't go wif e all black look rite?i bought online Harley original black rocker boxes for my fren to put it on. He bring to HDS,ask them put them on. HDS says they won't do it as its not bought fr them,n warranty will void if put on.

 

Knn,HDS monopolized everything.say warranty void if use other parts other than e HD brand. Warranty void if repair/service not done by them. Now use HD brand part,ask them put on, still say cannot coz not bought fr them?!

 

Lucky thing I dun buy new bikes,esp HD.if not I under control by them.

This is called e rocker boxes. They sit rite on top of e cylinders.

Since ur bike is new,I suggest u do ur mods after e warranty is over. Rite now all ur paint,chrome n parts still so new. Wait till w paint start to fade or if maybe ur bike dropped one time,the redo e paintjob or e parts.

i changed my rocker box thru HDS even before i took delivery of the bike..no issues so far since 2009

 

That's coz u bought it fr them. I bought original Harley part, which was Powdercoated in USA.but HDS won't do put it up.

Corners are dangerous so get through them as fast as you can

Hi, any recommendation for shop that sell and install ERP bracket in front of the air intake for sportster? If u can pls share the cost here too. tks

 

Had contacted Tony but need to wait. So i am looking for more options.

 

Btw, yesterday i went rounding to Changi Village looking for Nasi lemak but found out the market was under renovation :dot:

ERP unit installed.

 

Now another problem comes up. I accidentally did some scratches on my exhaust front heat shield. Anyone know how much it cost to replace it? Are there other options for heat shield design for XL50 Sportster?

Is it possible to re chrome it?
