Balley, that's an awesome paint job. And Thumper, I agree the yellow does look good on a Sporty. Black Harley...well, I've never really been one that wanted to look like everyone else.

I had to go with Lava Red on the Sportster so it would match the WideGlide.

Lava Red Sunglo is close to the same as the Metallic Lava Red.

But of course the Fatboy had to be Black. Matches it's personality..

Most people own a black Sporty and I do think the black color looks good on any Harley. It is hard to keep it shinny and scratch free, just look at my bike, when it comes to polish, I polish the black part only lol. A few times a missed the wax on the white because I didn't see the wax when I clean it.

Mine's been called everything from red to brown to burnt orange to root beer. I really don't know and haven't seen one at a dealer the same color so I could ask them. I'm wondering what color to call it myself so what do you guys think?
