I picked up two nos sprocket covers for my Bonnie earlier - I want to brighten the factory black engine up a bit by playing with the covers. I had the pair of them as they were so so cheap and the seller cut me a great deal (40 USD for the pair, local collection). Both go well on the bike......but what do you reckon? I know which one the mag pies amongst us will pluck for. Chrome:
Brushed alloy:

Alloy looks classy I think when people put chrome bits on a bike to dress it up are trying to hard just my opinion but it looks way better with the brushed cover 'I tkink'

Brushed for me, but everyone's opinion is unique, beauty in the eye of the beholder.

I vote chrome - the alloy looks a little unfinished in this particular case, I think. With chrome it looks like a smart bike rather than a workhorse.
Then again...

if it was mine I think the brushed, in my opinion it goes better with a classic air cooled motor but the problem with opinions is theyre like ****holes cos just about everyone has one...

No need to be envious....this is not really an expensive bike in the great scheme of things ....if you really want one you will have one.....simples.

I like the chrome. Looks nice with either, chrome just has the edge IMHO.

For me with that engine I'd want it black but chrome would be my second choice
