Chrome can be found on just about every motorcycle on the road today. When used properly, it can look great. When used too much, it can look ridiculous and possibly induce a seizure. (i.e. most 'choppers')
Honda did it right. My friends know exactly what I mean as illustrated by the collection you see below.

Found it!
Weeks ago, I ran into a post on Ottonero of an awesome looking cb450 that someone sort of cafe'd. Here's the direct link:

In fact, there's lots of great stuff to look at through the length of the blog. Unfortunately, I'm monolingual at best and i really can't appreciate it like I should. I wished that I would've at least understood the blog enough to find out where the builder got that sweet gauge. It's a digital number with all the pertinent info packed into a single bezel. Plus, it looks rad.
Well, with a bit of help from google and a friend who's just as obsessive about this stuff as I am, we found it.
Looky, looky...

Here's the stateside distributor:

Looks like $230 brings it home. The only question now, is how bad do I need food, gas, heat, etc...
