TC, the paint on the sporty is not stock, its .15 wt. green metal flake over a light ivy green pearl. I purposely did not flow the clear smooth as to give it a semi smooth finish with a lot more bling. I used to be an automotive painter and I experimented with pearls and metal flakes for some time now.

Since when does a real Harley rider fear a colour unless its on the back of a jacket?

Very nice rides. Any paint rub with that tool bag on the XLH fender?
