I would find a sweet shade of orange. Orange is an H-D color and for some reason I dont see many Harleys with orange on them. They seem to have a different variation of a shade of orange every year. Sedona Orange was in 2010 and wont be made again because of the tsunami in Japan where the paint was made, loved that color. I liked last years tequilla sunrise orange, lots of metallic/flake in it. You could go bright or dark, gloss or flat, and it will look sweet with lots of Chrome or lots of black or any variation of it all.
I liked 2012's bright orange on the Fatbob but would never buy it. After seeing "Montanimal"s Fatbob with black pipes and black apes he just did, I wish I had gotten orange instead of my Denim Black.
Long story short I vote you find a custom shade or Orange or Red and do black accents like pipes and/or bars.

Im having the same issue with my bike. Its the original Diamond Ice and have been thinking about changing the color as well.
As much as I like the look of an all black bike...Im not sure if I would dig it after a couple of months.
Really dig crimson13 red bike.

Id say buy a set of tins and get those painted. PBP is a limited color and you dont see it much. They only made a few bikes solid PBP. Love that color. Had to wait for 5 months extra cause I wanted that color.
