2006 Harley-Davidson Night Train Paintjob - Once You Go Black...

10. Moving on to the headlight, Brian removed the chrome headlight by disconnecting the wires from the plug and unbolting the mounting bracket and post. Then he replaced the triple tree mounting post with the new black headlight and an offset post. The new light has a smaller shell, so we needed to use the 3/4 offset to move the light forward. The bulb is the same size-only the shell is smaller.

11. Next, Brian installed the powdercoated drag bars and risers; these were the stock bars that the bike had, but we just blacked them out. This is where we planned to put the new Diamond Black handgrips.

12. After installing all the stock wires, switch housing, and cables, Brian lubed all the cables to the throttle and clutch.

13. Here is the new paint set: One-piece gas tank, rear fender, and front fender.

14. Starting at the front and working his way to the rear, Brian removed the stock front fender and bolted on the new black flamed fender.

15. With the switch housing in place, Brian installed the new Black Buckshot mirrors.

16. Next, the gas tank was removed from the bike. The wires for the fuel gauges were carefully removed and the tank was placed on the workbench so that the pump could be pulled out.

17. There are 10 small bolts on the top of the pump plate that were removed. Then the level sensor wires were unclipped and the fuel supply hose was removed from the fuel plug. Brian replaced the gasket and filter, then installed this into the new tank.

18. After the gas tank was placed on the bike and bolted in place, the crossover hose was installed with all new clamps, and we refueled the tank.
