Hi all. I'm getting ready to make the deposit for a Deluxe (can't wait!) and I am still torn between the Chopper Blue and White, or the Black and White. I know it is personal preference, but I would just like to know what your thoughts about them are. Thanks!
You are right, it is personal preference. Mine is for the blue and white. I think thats the best colour combo as blue seems to compliment white better than black, in my opinion.
Also, in my opinion, the Deluxe is the best looking bike in the Harley range. Good choice.
Good luck deciding the colour combo, either way you will really enjoy that bike.
For me, the blue and white is the best. They had one at our local shop and it was one great looking ride. The Deluxe is one of the best looking bikes HD has come up with recently. Another one is this years CVO Fatboy. That bike is sweet and at almost $30,000 has a sweet pricetag.
Definately a personal preference, but I agree with Edgar, go with the blue and white. It looks awesome on the Deluxe. I also think there are waaaay too many black bikes, I prefer lighter colors on bikes hence pic below...
I'll go against the grain a little bit here...I like the Chopper Blue myself...I got that on my bike. I plan to add ghost flames to it in a few years when the timing and money is right.
Thanks for all your replies. I actually went to another dealer and guess what I saw, A blue and white deluxe sitting right next to a black and white one. Man, they are both beautiful! I think it helped me decide. But I am still on the wall. The black and white is classic, but the blue and white really makes the nostalgic look of the bike stand out.
