Screamin' Eagle medallions

by Editor on 10/05/24

I was gifted a second Screamin' Eagle medallion but the paint on it was in rough shape but after removing it the beautiful chrome was reviled! My original plan was to paint the two tone blue to match the bike BUT who in their right mind would paint over chrome?
Not this guy!!

Motorcycle riding in the South Okanagan, British Columbia Canada.

NEW VIDEO: Part 2
After having his 37th surgery from a motorcycle accident Ned Dixon sent me a message that he missed the wind in his face on his 2005 VRSCSE CVO VROD & asked if I'd shoot a POV video for him.
This video is raw footage, just the sound of a motorcycle and the wind in your face, so sit in front of a fan, turn it to the maximum setting and push play! (Remember to select 720P for best resolution)
All the very best to you Sir on a speedy recovery!
