Riding and owning a Harley Davidson motorcycle is an honor and a privilege.

imagine you pay a price of Jetta just for 2 wheels - and he is looking for a protection plan

As it is said by many
Harley Davidson motorcycles enjoy a rich and storied tradition. Riding one is not about the speed or handling of the bike per se, but rather, the enjoyment of the feel and embodiment of the entire experience. Look at the scenery, hear and feel the engine

This Softtail Fat Boy is the right and adequate choice in order to meet the balance between handling, comfort and looks.

See the road scurry underneath you. Feel the wind in your face and on your body. See how it's just much better when on the bike. Feel the rumble in between your legs. Lean back. See the blur of the side road as you look straight ahead

Knowing the Flames that is burning in My Buddy (new owner) and plans of going off for some long trips .............
..........
ultimately is it rather hard to care for this when you are always on the road..... So I decided to Opti Coat for my buddy.....

a simple protection plan
Opti-Coat is based on a resin pre-polymer that we manufacture and once it is applied, it cross links and reacts with urethane and other clear coat paints. Opti-Coat has better chemical resistance, scratch & mar resistance, and release properties than any automotive coating in use. This coating like a regular clear coat lasts indefinitely unless it is removed by polishing, sanding, or paint removers
 
kc, you are an opi-coat maniac. looks great on that classic fat boy harley. nice color too. harley vivid black paint is notorious for scratching just looking at it, very soft. opti-coat is probably a good choice for that color too.
