Dealer sent me a pic of the new white paint scheme. I'm so tempted to trade in my '16, as I just dropped off a bunch of parts for powder coating. Can't justify trading in already but man I love this color.

Bike scheme looks sweet. I wanted a white bike when I was shopping. Couldn't find one in good enough shape. Maybe only way to get a cherry bike in white is to buy new.

Paint the pig...sure, it's expensive but cheaper than a new scooter!

I had a White Gold Pearl. Loved the color, hated the gold pin stripes. That Bonneville Salt Pearl is pretty sweet.

I've always had a soft spot for white bikes with a blacked out engine. I thought about trading in my RK but I don't want another payment.

Unless I'm wrong, but it looks like the SG/RG and Specials are pinstripe-less, sans the anniversary edition. I like it as it doesn't adulterate the paint.
