You have a blacked out bike now, if you are questioning going with another blacked out bike I would say you have already made up your mind. Either way the bike will be awesome, good luck and keep us posted on your choice.

Chrome is timeless bro, but EVERYONE has a chromed out bike. This is my first bike that has been blacked out. I say go for the special and be different man.

How long do you keep a bike? Chrome is my personal choice because it's timeless and easy to take care of. Black is super trendy right now but in a few years it may not be "cool" anymore. I have a chromed out 17 SGS and a blacked out 17 road king special and the black is already looking dull on the exhaust of the road king
