Me too. I always liked the Voodoo Purple that HD offered on the Street Bob a few years back. I wonder how many purple bikes will really hit dealer floors. When I was getting mine, I talked to a bunch of HD dealers in northern IL and none had ever had an Amber Whiskey LR and only two had a Jade Green one. Most HD dealers ordered the LR in Vivid Black.

Saw the blue pearl in person. Like the color, not too fond of the graphics personally

The graphics also continue down the rear fender, not limited to just the tank

EDIT: Also just noticed they changed the points cover. No longer the black "103"

Had another great ride today. We put on 400 miles total round trip. Total time on the road was 8 hours which includes a nice lunch with friends that we met at a location sort of in the middle of where we all live. I have just over 4500 miles on the LR now. The season up here will draw to a close in the next 4 weeks or so when snow starts to fly. It was only 37F when we pulled out on the road this morning. Thankfully it had warmed up to about 67F for the drive home this afternoon.

You are racking up the miles. I will hit a bit over 3500 tomorrow if I ride to work. Get your riding in while you can. Being a bit south of where you are, I am able to ride into Nov and often into early Dec. I should be at 5500-6000 miles by the time my riding season comes to an end.

Did you go with the regular 444's or the HD version?

I am still on the fence on upgrading the suspension. So far, the stock suspension is doing its job for me.

Darn rain kept off the bike today and it will keep me off tomorrow as well.

I'm in the same boat right now. I would like a set of Progressive 444's but they are $800 up here. Maybe next year.

I went with the black progressives, ordered from JP cycles, price a little less than shows on progressive. also on any work day can get hold of tech support easy. wish could be the same with Ricor.
will give them a good test this next week, wife and I are going on a redwoods trip.
