True. But that contrast of the cylinders in black with the pushrods in chrome looks great, imho of course...

Chrome section in middle gives some contrast.

I am somewhat in the same boat. I am a short guy and I am not comfortable on my SG. So I am trying to sell it. I was leaning towards either a Slim or a Fat Boy. Now I think it is between the Slim and the BO. I used to have a Deuce and I thought it was pretty comfortable. Is the riding position of the BO similar to the Deuce?

Lol.. No not yet.. Im actually taking my time. Im also contemplating on waiting for the 2016's to come out.. Main reason is i have a feeling the new Olive Gold for the Slim is going to be nice especially with the plans i have for blacking the rest of the bike out.. I think it would be a good color combo.. Plus you never know there might be a new bike for 16.. Im not holding my breath on that one tho.. Im really wanting to see that Olive Gold...

Why not release in like March and have most of the year to sell while prople are riding vs at almost the end of the riding season in most states?
Anyway, waiting another 6-8 weeks is what I'd do.

I'd wait too. HD really screws themselves with their late July/early August new model year releases. Have never understood why they do that???
