Beautiful bike! Happy for you. If I had the $$$, I would own a 17 CVO too.

Any of you guys that own these beautiful M8's and need a new tool box you ought consider looking into this one.

I actually needed a little more room and put this one together.

As others have said, that white with the blacked out forks and what not, looks outstanding! Is the white metal flake gloss or matte?

Thank you very much!

It is the "Crushed Ice Pearl" which looks white (obviously) with very small blue and green flakes.

Yep. You won't even notice the metal flake unless it's in sunlight. I've got the same color M8, love it.

Pet peeve:
Why does Harley insist on calling metal flake paint "pearl". Metal flake and pearl are two different paint jobs. In '08 they made a street glide in "Moroccan Gold Pearl" and that was a true pearl paint. My Crushed Ice Pearl is a metal flake paint. Stupid name, but gorgeous color.
