I recently added black slip on pipes to my Indian Scout (they look and sound so cool~ very happy i did).. I did not get the black heat shield yet.. I kinda like the look of the black & chrome mix . I added the pipes to add a mean sound to my machine and really wanted to go all black.. but now not so sure.
Does anyone have any thoughts about the chrome and black look , maintenance, cleaning concerns of the black / chrome etc.
Thanks Girls ( & guys)
Not a very good picture but it is the only one I have. ;-(

I've got black tips on my chrome Tab longs and they look good.

Some don't like chrome, saying or thinking it's a PIA to clean. I believe just the opposite. As far as the look of black or chrome, or a combination there of, you're the one you gotta please Anyways, looks like your bike is kind'a blacked out so maybe black heat shields would appeal to you more than chrome. Or... black chrome or shiny black powder coat?

There's a ghost laying across your bike LOL

I think your bike looks fantastic! I have black pipes with chrome tips and I think it looks amazing!

I agree with the above. The mix of the chrome and black looks good to me.
