If you look real close you can see a light dirty fingerprint on the front whitewall but I wasn't going to bring it up earlier, just encourage him because I know he sits and stares at his bike and would lose sleep if someone pointed it out

Thought I was the only one that noticed that.
Tried cleaning that black smudge off my screen, but it was not on my screen.

Probably dirty hands when installing. Supposed to wear the white gloves when near Bertha.

You're right, I can see it from here. Don't say anything! Let's see how long it takes him to notice....

Not sure if youre being sarcastic or not; hard to tell via text sometimes! But I actually do like the sedona orange. Of course it may not be the same in person as on the web but I thought it was a nice color.

Some of the other new colors, especially the combo colors are terrible this year.

No sarcasm, this time
There was a Sedona Orange Road King about 6 years ago near my place. About a 99 or 2000, I think. Man, I liked that color. If the 2011 looks as good, could be trouble. I could see that RK with white walls, like Kens. Except no black smudges..... plural (check the back one too)
