I think the two would look good together. BUT I'm not a fan of blacked out bikes AT ALL, as you can see with my bike. 50/50 black and chrome.

Thanks everyone for the replies, I've made up my mind. I'm pulling the trigger, I really like the two blacks together

And thanks, Thowk. The picture of the back of your bike is exactly what I was trying to imagine

2014 SGS Black Denim/Gloss Black. Rich and menacing.

Go for it. I had my 08 denim black NRS detailed for sale but the guy BUFFED and shined my air box cover. I was furious, but it sold in a week. Buyer said he liked the shiny look with the dull matte fenders. Air box cover was buffed and shined by mistake.

My 2012 FB was denim, and I blacked it out with a lot of Gloss black powder coated parts. I think the gloss and denim look good together.

Personally, I love the look.

I've a gloss black EGS myself, and a few flat back parts on it. Want to get a few more done. The mix of the two (2) blacks, and a touch of chrome looks best, IMO.
