I hesitated buying a white bike after all the years of vivid black. But after I saw my Road King the first time and imagined how she'd look with a black pinstripe job, it was all over.

I bought a new sportster in 78, it was white. The glide in the picture came new in Root-beer brown, later it had a black tank and finally painted it all white. Why wouldn't I

my bud that owns the pearl ultra is a very busy dude, I've rode it more in the last 4 years than he has. the blue one is mine, same year and model as his....when I got it he asked me "who's gonna service my bike now??"

all three machines are 2002, the T-800 is my bread and butter. they'll have to pry that pre emission 6NZ Cat powered KW winch tractor from my cold dead hands.

Hey if it talks to you, go for it. And I don't think the white bikes makes for a "girls" colored bike. I've seen some I thought looked pretty good. Now imo, i would think black out everything on a white bike...

Get the white one a powder coat everything chrome to black, and buy a black exhaust with some gloss black rims

Would look bad ***
