If they weren't charging a premium I might have bought one. I like the color combo.

The only factor that should play in your decision is if you like it and will be happy with it. If you like it buy it. If you don't like it either don't buy it or buy it and get it painted later down the line.

2nd that. Everybody can't see what something looks like threw yer eyes. you might like blondes, I like brunettes. We are all different and that is what makes the world so great.
What if we was all the same. Oh dear !

When I first saw the Duracell paint I really liked it. Then I decided I wasn't crazy about it. Now I think I do like it. And as a bonus you don't see it everywhere. If you like it buy it! You only live once!

Without a doubt, I'd buy whichever has ABS. Cruise is only a $230 option that you can add at any time.

I do like the Anniversary colors and everyone (except me) has black.

Sounds to me that you really don't like the Duracel color,if you're asking if it's worth a $1,000 off.

Buy what color strikes you the best.
If you can put 15 grand down, you can aford a color you like.

Definatley buythe Street Glide over the Fat Bob.
I just traded an '07 Fat Boy in and I couldn't be happier.

I think they look good and do not believe resale should be an issue.
