Default Black Cherry or Purple ?

The wife and I were looking at new bikes the other day.

She liked the Black Cherry color, but I think it is just another name for Purple.

Does anyone else see Purple when they look at a Black Cherry bike?

To each their own, but I hate a Purple bike.

If I have insulted anyone, sorry.

I have a 2007 Vivid Black Ultra Classic.

Fell free to tell me how boring I am.


"Nice Trailer Pu$$y!"

Vivid black is just black, fancy name for black,lol. Friend teased me about mine being purple, but its a different color, heck under some lighting conditions it looks black.

When I think purple I think of something brighter, closer to blue. Black Cherry looks a lot like... a black cherry. I really like it.

Black Cherry looks burgundy or maroon to me. Nothing like purple at all.

I was about ready to get black cherry til I saw it in the sun. To me it looked brown. Check out all your color choices in different light if you can. I didn't really know black pearl had all the green and purple metal flakes until I had already wrote the check. I like it though.

Looks kind of purple to me dude. Not a bad looking ride at all but it does look like a deep purple or, yeah, a maroon. Purple - Maroon...it's all in the same family.

How can someone say Vivid Black is just another way of saying Black.

It's completely different. Black is not as Vivid as Vivid Black.

Black is more like Black if that makes since.
