I've been watching the new Harley-Davidson motorcycle year model introduction every year since 1986. For me, this is absolutely the WORST color selection I have ever witnessed. And I do mean EVER! ............. Just awfull!!!!
....you never know until you actually see the color in person........
Ain't that the truth.
I had seen Black Pearl RGs indoors a bunch of times and never noticed it. Then, just when I was just about resigned to buying a white Ultra, there was a Black Pearl Road Glide parked in the sunlight, and right then I knew what colour I wanted.
This colour thing is tough for me right now, too. I'm probably going to buy an RG Ultra, and the colours are so UNinspiring that I need to see the Brilliant Silver Pearl or Cool Blue Pearl in real life.
What is this "Custom Color" about ? Could I order a bike in Black Pearl ?
