Default Black Ice Pearl, what do you think???

I have a chance to get a 2010 FXDC with very low miles. It is Black Ice Pearl and I am not sure if I like it. What do you guys think?

It looks purple in the photo. It should look good with black exhaust, air intake, shocks, etc. Are you going to keep it stock or going to mod?

The question is how do you like it? Super Glides shouldn't be too hard to come by. Pass on it unless it screams "Buy Me!"

How many miles?
What's the asking price?

Fancy word for purple..Mine's ..Mine's Blue pearl..Interesting but I hate Pink Pearl on a car. RIP's new Crosstrek is Pearl and has blue and pink glitter in it..OK I guess.
You're the one it needs to know you like it. However, I'm with you about wanting others to like it..Some day, something too funky will be more difficult to sale.
To me, that is funky but what do I know..I hate black. But they are the fastest. Harley replaces more of them then any other color from all the silver's hair's popping them off.
A good really low deal and there is not a lot to paint if you take it all off but someone is going to want a grand to paint them

If you don't love the paint,there's no reason to buy that bike. There's another Dyna out there for you. It's a buyer's market on used Harley's right now.

For what it's worth, I wouldn't buy a bike that color, knowing that I would need to get it painted immediately. Not a fan.

Yeah, everything in my mind is telling me not to buy this bike, and only because of the color, except my addiction to impulse buying. There are two black FXDC's and a silver FXDB within a 45 minute ride from me but I haven't had a chance to go see them.

I like it. Chrome the fork lowers and put on a Lepera low profile seat and you have a great looking ride.
