I painted my bike in a flat black 2 years ago. There still is a little shine in it though. It looks good but I am tired of it and am going back to gloss finish during the winter with a new paint job. Here is a pick of it though. My wheels are chromed though so its not exactly the look you will get but its an idea.

I've been noticing alot of flat paint jobs on helmets lately as well. I like that satin finish on yours CK - wonder what it'd look like with some minimal silver or chrome decals?

SPDRMNS and/or CKF4i420...

Do you have any pics that are dead on from the side of your bike? I'd like to play around with Photoshop to see what some decals would do.

Thanx
