I vote for the Burple. Maybe even with a coat of medium flakes.

Default low rider color

all 3 are great choices but....... if i had a low rider ,especially with the wide tire .id harken back to the low riders roots ...go with 1977 grey with red retro script h-d on tank ...or with 1978 white with orange h-d bar and shield on tank ... just my 2 cents...

I'm interested in info about your rear fender. Is it metal or fiberglass and can passengers ride on it.

Back in the late 80's I used this color mixed with a touch of blue in it.
Mixed the chrome with some copper and brass plating..........
