Do a search for user "dickey" and look at his 2007 RKC - perhaps the nicest bike I have ever seen (oh, it's white with a little blue).

So I'm seeing loads of bike in the shops at the moment getting painted and powder coated white.

So white is the new black which is the new chrome

Thats funny, bet you do get a lot of wierd looks. I have seen several here in IL but they are white and black.

One of our local Troopers was killed a couple years ago close to where I live by a truck driver who fell asleep at the wheel and hit him while he was making a traffic stop

I repainted my Springer just for something different, but I put all my stock tins in storage so it can always go back to original.
