With the color scheme of your bike and the black accents the black looks pretty good and is easier to take care of. Bottom line though is if you like it, you made the right choice. Good looking bike.
I like the black, but the air cleaner cover is out of place. If you get a chance to take another picture, place the camera further away from the bike to include the front end. The pics only show 2/3 of the bike. Might need to black out the front end...
From the first pic you can see that the forks are still the stock brushed aluminum finish. If you’re gonna go black on all the frame parts and accents, the front end is a must!!
Thanks for making look at the pictures again, that black air cleaner cover just looks terrible! It’s just a huge gloss black blob sitting there all by itself. I can’t look at it any longer!!! AHHHHHH
