Yeah, my boss bought one, and it looks good. Satin black, the only thing I dont like is how the turn lights on the front are glossy black, then the ones on the rear are flat black. Dont know why harley did that, kinda looks funny. Talked him into puttin some V&H exhaust on it, then puttin some black wraps on the pipes, to give it that mean look.

Never noticed they were different colors. Some of the guys on here who have blacked out the lo's completely look amazing
