Anyone have a pictures of a black 1800 with Honda's chrome side covers installed?
Also, I'm still trying to decide on the Honda Boulevard (short) screen. Anyone have front and side pics?
I need to do SOMETHING to this bike to make it my own :-)
Thanks,
Steve

Don't have a pic of a black with chrome covers but will have a red with chrome covers. I ordered a set of the Kuryakyn 3901 Lighting Valve Covers and will get them sometime this week. I didn't know if I really wanted them but did want some chrome covers. Thought about chroming the oem valve covers but don't want to go through the hassles although I like the look a bit better than the Kuryakyn covers.

You wanted some pics of the valve cover on the bike here you go. It is the GL1800 Lightning Valve Covers by Kuryakyn and I was hesitant to get them because I wanted to chrome the covers. I really didn't want a add on cover but was pleasantly surprised at the quality and look of these. I wasn't sure at first but they grow on you. I know you wanted a black bike but the covers are black and you could Photoshop the rest but it will give you an idea. If you need a bit more detail I could take a pic of just the covers but at least you get idea.   |

I believe that he is looking for pics with chrome SIDE covers. You may be right I should have read better, but we will see, is he speaking of the ones that are plastic and go where the Valkyrie is and the frame and swing arm covers? |

I think so. By the way those chrome covers look pretty good. I think they would look great on my black Valk.  |

Too bad they don't make them in black. It would be cheaper, and easier than getting mine powder coated black. Maybe I will try to find a used set and get them powder coated.  |

Hi guys, thanks to everyone who responded.
I was looking for picks of the Honda side covers, the chrome ones sold by Honda that go right under the seats. Not the pivot-arm covers or the engine covers from Kuryakin, I have those.
I like the blacked out look of the bike, but thinking it may need a little 'bling'. I was hoping to find a pic of one with these already installed, so I could see if they'd work for me.
Thanks!
Steve

Looks like you get the Goldstar for reading comprehension today  Thanks I do like them after getting used to the difference. The black valve covers are available its the chrome that is not readily available http://www.ebay.tv/sch/eBay-Motors-/6000/i.html?_sop=39&_nkw=gl1800+valve+covers&_frs=1 |
