A Few Pieces of Chrome

So naturally I've been scouting some bling for the Naked Wing. I personally think that you can have too much chrome. With that being said, there are a few pieces on every bike that should be chromed. (unless it's an outlaw of course)

First the grips. I have these same grips on my Bleubells CM400T. I have been very impressed with how they've held up and they are also quite comfortable. The Rubber inlays are very durable but don't offer any cushion. I'm not old enough that I really care about that yet anyways. These will for sure be the grips on the '78 Goldwing.
The second thing that must be chrome are the mirrors. Plastic stem and mirrors were designed for dirt, sport or touring bikes. Not cruisers. There are a myriad of mirror styles. (little play on words there, ha ha) Some are really cool and other are really out there but which ever you choose it must fit the style of the bike. Example. Flames=flames, Maltese Cross=Maltese Cross, etc... If you don't have any elements of the mirror on the rest of your bike it looks a little silly. I do believe that the opposite is true as well. You can have too many flames, crosses, dolphins or whatever your theme is. A safe bet is to keep it simple. You lose a little originality but make up for it in class. Oval is pretty standard but look good on most all bikes. These are chromed, not billet and i think they look pretty good. (At the end of the day, my opinion is the only one that matters.)

Now lastly, chrome is not needed here but on older bikes I think it is acceptable to spice up what would otherwise be a dark cavase of an engine, cable covers. Now I have heard that they can be really cheap and aren't worth the time but I am considering them in the gold color for a select few cables on the bike. I am thinking mostly of those down buy the engine itself. Not to hot on them up by the controls. I'll need to look at the bike again and see where in any where that I'd really like them.
