1935 VL Generator Strap Finish

[downunder vl]

Hi all,

I am getting conflicting information as to whether the generator strap on a 1935 VL is Chromed or Parkerised. I would be grateful if someone could clear it up for me. Thanks.

Neither, they were black painted, never chrome. Earlier were Cadmium, but black in '35.

Thanks Rubone,

Final question. Gloss, satin or matt?

Thanks again

H-D only used gloss on everything, those other finishes are just caused by age.

Thanks again Robbie.
