I love my '06 Road Glide (Deep Cobalt), only put on about 200 miles so far. My other bike's an '05 1200C. Different bikes-both great! Congratulations.

Thanks for all the reply's. Put on 172 miles over Saturday afternoon and Sunday. It's really fun to drive and it is so awesome to have storage for a change. The cruise control is really slick. Between me and my s.o. we have a combined weight of 275 lbs, and the bike pulls just fine. I can't wait to get on it though. Keeping it under 3500 rpm till I hit 500 miles. The stereo is very nice also...

And although the color is called black pearl, the bike is not black. It's like a gunmetal grey with multi-colored metalflake.

For the guys bummed out about the gal on the wall, here 'ya go...

Good looking scoot!! I really dig that color. It's the color I ordered for my new Street Glide, and the HD website doesn't do it justice!! Was thinking about the Black Cherry 'til I got to see the color in person, and it rocks!!

As to that OTHER pic...HEAR HEAR!! GOOD MAN!!!!!

I felt it was the best color offered on the FLTRI, IMO. And yes, the website pic's are a joke. Two things I really dig about the color are;
it tie's in very well with the silver powder coated motor. And in the sun the metalflake is blue, green, red instead of just the traditional silver metalflake...
