Default Crossbones paint selection

My GF and I had an unexpected get off the day before Thanksgiving. Not hurt bad (us or the bike) but I will need to replace the tank and thought about changing the color of the bike. It cam stock with the gloss blue. I have been searching and have seen a ton of black bikes but not many pics of other color options. I need to stay with a HD color but it does not have to be stock. Suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Not sure yet if we need it for anything. It has about a 3" diameter pushed in spot on the left side....right side looks great!

That white one is one of the WARR'S HD London. customs I think. They do some nice retro customs using stock Harleys as the base. Check them out here

If you do decide to get rid of the damaged tank,I'd be interested.what I'm after is the bracket that holds the fuel injection bits inside the tank itself. Need to fit it into custom tank I've done.
