Really Hot Harley Davidson Softail Fat boy Opti Coat Protected By KC the Detailien

For U create my inmost being & U knitted me in my mothers womb I am fearfully & wonderfully make\
You'll be looking out the roaring exhaust before you can see a Harley coming (especially if equipped with Vance Hines pipes



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.



You never get tired of looking and admiring the subtleties and richness of the chrome



No matter how many times you listen to it - a Good Feel gut feeling underneath you, when you warm up the bike.




look at the detail


SILVER, BULLET HOLE DISC CAST ALUMINUM

RM 10k

the meter - 220km/p

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



1,584 cc, Twin Cam 96B engine. On the Fat Boy, this works with a claimed 89.80 ft. lbs. of torque from 2,750 rpm in order to move around the 714 lbs wet weight



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.....



Not just any other coating - but one who lives up its name




Opti-Coat 2.0 forms ceramic bonds (Si-C)at very high temperatures and will not be damaged by extreme heat. Therefore, it can be used to protect wheels, brake calipers, engine compartments without any issues.
more hot engines



RM 12k Double Barrel Staggered

that every Harley rider want out of their V-Twin! Produce Great sound and better power. That's exactly what the Double Barrel Long delivers with a larger Power Chamber. 

The Power Chamber makes more horsepower & torque in the mid-range, for better ride-ability. Full coverage heat shields, keep the system looking great for miles.


Thirty years of racing. Thirty years of winning… We are Vance & Hines.

some of the close up shots for your viewing pleasure


more chromes


more 


meter again



after opti coat
the chrome is better looking & sharper


look at the details




coated paddle




Horny - horn




special dedicated to my buddy - taking the baton and responsibility of maintaining it, with just washing (Alien No rinse wash) even on trips

ownership

remember to keep the ride safe and memorable.




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.

    Great work on a nice bike KC! I'm surprised you still have the older syringes of OC with as many vehicle you do. Did you buy a dozen of them at once or what?

    I counted a privileged to be able to detail one
    as much as many can afford one but many fail to protect its investment (a price tag of USD 60K)

    Awesome KC, just Awesome! We have a HUGE HD plant about 25 miles from my house, we have Hogs out the rear around here. It's nice to see one get the Autopian treatment!
