Well, when i first got my 2007 Triumph America over 2 years ago it looked like this....
Then I decided I much preferred it looking like a single seater & wanted more shiney stuff so went down this route....
Then i started getting fed up of polishing the chrome. The wheels & fork bottoms had the dreaded worming so decided to sand them down & paint them black, also blacked out the graters & a few other things whilst I was at it....
To this....
Then over the winter months I decided to strip the bike down, give it a thorough clean up, bit more blacking out, accept that some chrome should stay & give it a complete respray to freshen her up a bit.
Just need to fit the front indicators back on the forks & solder the wires in the headlight shell. Also need to change the rear shocks as they are getting quite rusty & the ride is a bit soft plus i'm going to fit an oil pressure gauge.
Other than that, i'm well happy with how she looks now....
