Posts: 752 Broken Arrow, OK | Saw a very nice product recently at a Victory weekend event. A chrome cover, also available in black, that covers the blued out crossover pipe on our bikes. With the lean angle of a parked Vision, this cover is exceptionally nice when viewed. See it here...

I saw one on a CrossRoads and it looked great.....really great. We almost had a battle for it, LOL.
Another interesting product available in a month or 2 is the Kuryakyn Chrome Wing V. Appears to be either a silicone job install or maybe 3M tape and applied directly over the cheese dimples on our wedges. See it here...

Sorry if any of this has already been posted. It's new to me.
ps, my Strokers chrome crossover will be here tomorrow from Dallas. I'll post pics Wed after I install it.

| When I lay on the ground and look the bike over I always find pebbles on the cross over. So I'm guessing you just might trap pebbles in that cover and when your caught is the rain its going to get sought in the cross over.
I do like the peace and good thinking on Strokers part but.
I wounder why Vic went to a oval cross over? Maybe flows better. Himm |

Posts: 1117 Northeast Ohio | Uses the existing bolts, but wish it came with chrome ones. @John Frey, it is probably cheaper to produce the oval ones.

Posts: 752 Broken Arrow, OK | Looks good John. These bikes have such a lean when parked, those really look good.
I did run to the local Ace hardware and got chrome allen head bolts to replace the stock ones.
