    First they make a nice looking chrome powder coat . Second yall need to make a new set of tripletrees for that , the ones you have on it are WAY to wide ! If you make a set so that the forks end up just wide enough for the tire , not only will it look 5000 percent better but it will improve the turn radius and make it easier to mount a front fender !
