Get some plastic chrome molding (the kind that goes on door edges).? Finishes off the flange quite nicely.

Re: While we're on the subject of HDs...

Since many of you collect and appreciate unusual motorcycles, let me advise you that??the 1999-2000 Excelsior Henderson uses a copy of the V-Max cassette tranny, but with differnt top ratios.? Unfortunately?EH put them together REALLY sloppily, so if any of you have, or are contemplating getting a Super X, be advised that you MUST rebush the tranny before riding the X and use circlips in reassembly or you run a GREAT risk of locking up the tranny at speed!
