New Atlas bits-Off a 650SS????

I got what I felt was a pretty good deal on these for my Atlas. However the ones on the Atlas were black. Are these off of a 650SS? I kind of like the look of that bike better than mine anyway, so mine may look a little more like it.
Traction is kind of like bowel control. Once you think you are going to lose it, it's probably too late!

Somebody chromed and added the amp gauge, 650SS and Atlas normally used the same cycle parts.

Hi

I would stick with the black oil tank as chrome will weaken the metal and well crack and the mounts will break at some time, how do I know, I found out the hard way, lucky I had a spare oil tank at the time as well they look better black in my books.
