I have become addicted to completely blacking out my bikes. First my 9 went completely black. Then I bought a red FZ1 for a commuter bike and that only a few months, before the black paint went on. I have blacked out all pieces on the FZ1 like my nine. Every single visible bolt and screw has been painted black. Just thought I would show my passion for being different from the herds.

Welcome to the forum! That M109 is the only cruiser that does it for me. I hope to have one in the next few years.

I agree. I just noticed one yesterday. I never look at the cruisers when at the bike shop, but I had to walk by some to get to the sport bikes, and I couldn't believe there was a cruiser with inverted forks and sport tires, although I'm pretty sure the one I sat on was a Yamaha. It didn't have this huge pipe on it, but this was the only one I could find on the Yamaha site with inverted forks...

That's the Road warrior I like it, and considered trading in my cruiser but decided against it. That cannon on the side is very distracting and fugly.
 
Thanks everyone. As far as the strip yes the guy I bought it from fabricated these highway pegs on the bike. they work great so I left them on there. As far as the painting believe it or not the all the bars and forks and exhaust was done with Grill Paint. The stuff is awesome. I used it on the forks on my 9 two years ago and nothing had chipped off even when I clean bugs off of it. So I used it on there. Stuff is tough. Never knew they had grill paint till I had seen it in the auto store and tested it and loved it. thanks again everyone. i know blacking out bikes isnt for everyone. Its just what my vision sees for some reason.
 
I love it! That is an AWESOME and menacing looking pair of rides. Well done!! How much did it cost to get the FZ1 painted black from red? :tup: Thanks!!!
 
Very unique indeed! I was looking at your first picture and thought to myself it didn't do much for me. By the time I looked at the last picture I very much appreciated the Stealth thing. Nice work.
